my name is Sophie. I work at a public library in Wisconsin. I'm currently studying to be a young adult librarian, mostly so I can read YA books all day and get paid for it.

things I often tumble: feminism, books, relationships, dogs, Luna Lovegood, Xzibit meme, social (in)justice, pretty flickr things, LOLanything, Obama, gay rights, libraries, and anything else I find fascinating or funny or infuriating. usually SFW.

A 26-year-old artist and rape survivor has created a sign for the Williamsburg, Brooklyn block where she was assaulted. The artist, who spoke to ArtCal via email, has chosen to remain anonymous because her case is still in court. She says she hopes rapists who see the sign will think about the possibility of their loved ones being assaulted and “realize that the act they commit is unforgivable, and is an obscene expression of power over another person.”
