Australians are taking to the street to show their anger and frustration at the growing number of women killed in Australia at the hands of men — with major rallies kicking off today.
Twenty-six Australian women have died allegedly at the hands of a male perpetrator in the 16 weeks since January 1. Eleven of those alleged murders have occurred in the last 24 days alone.
Australians are now taking to the street to demand action with rallies and marches organised by the non-profit advocacy group this weekend. WWYW is a group dedicated to supporting victims of sexual violence, taking its name from a question many are asked when reporting sexual violence. Rallies kicked off in Newcastle and Ballarat on Friday night with thousands in attendance and taking to the streets.
