About Take Back the Night (TBTN)

TBTN is an event that happens on college campuses across the United States to bring awareness to sexual violence issues and provide an opportunity for survivors and others to share their experiences with violence in a powerful space after rallying and marching together. The event is designed to support survivors wherever they may be in their healing journey and provide our community with an opportunity to show solidarity and allyship. TBTN is part of a global initiative to end sexual and relationship violence and an event where all people join together to speak out against sexual and domestic violence.

About Denim Day

The Denim Day campaign began after the Italian Supreme Court overturned a rape conviction due to the survivor’s tight jeans. The justices implied that since the survivor was wearing tight jeans she must have helped the person who raped her remove her jeans, thereby implying consent. The following day, the women in the Italian Parliament came to work wearing jeans in solidarity with the survivor. As the longest-running sexual violence prevention and education campaign in history, Denim Day asks folks to wear denim on Wednesday April 29th, 2026 as a visible means of protest against the misconceptions that surround sexual violence.
