Columbia University Student Will Drag Her Mattress Around Campus Until Her Rapist Is Gone
“I think the act of carrying something that is normally found in our bedroom out into the light is supposed to mirror the way I’ve talked to the media and talked to different news channels, etc,” Emma continues in the full video which you can watch here.
So, I just want to go into HOW MUCH Columbia and the NYPD has failed, and revictimized, Emma Sulkowitz.
What I really love about this ‘mattress performance’ is that other students helped her carry her mattress across campus.
All those people reminded her that she didn’t have to carry that weight alone. That’s amazing.
this is her at her graduation
