Street Harassment (Semester Project)

I've always been so interested in the street harassment that females face today. Not only have I experienced intense verbal/physical harassment from strangers off the street, but I know many out there have. 

Statistics show that 65% of all women have experienced street harassment. Among these women, 23%  had been sexually touched, 20% had been followed, and 9% had been forced to do something sexual.

I made this public prezi in order for people to learn from and be inspired by my ideas. I also wanted to share my experience with street harassment as well as how other people, male and female, feel about it. You'd be surprised to read some of the responses they said during the interview.

Here is a link to my prezi:
