I feel like this is good practice to work as groups. We'll need more than this, but I feel good about contributing to this effort.

This kind of shit shouldn't be able to stand. I notice folks took video of these events, but didn't help this woman with the physical assault she endured. We have to be willing to get involved and help each other.
