“…and More” — Hey, that’s me! And to think I too was a splotch in this global rorschach! For a comprehensive look at the global impact of “One Billion Rising,” visit this press release from V-Day.

Way down the page you’ll find 12 points citing accomplishments of the rising. My favorites are #1 and #12:

1. Brought together people across movements and causes – mobilizing communities such as migrants, women in prison, domestic workers, urban poor, LGBTQI, farm workers, the disabled, and many more.

12. Generated the best collection of worldwide dance videos ever!
