'All I wanted was to survive, so I did’
By Joe Adler
This article is about the SASS 12th annual "Put Your Foot Down on Sexual Assault" walk-a-thon and the Clothesline Project, which Seacoast NOW members participated in, as usual. What is particularly interesting about this article is that it makes reference to one particular t-shirt as follows: One shirt hanging on the fence read: "All I wanted was to survive, so I did." It so happens that this is the shirt that June Briand made for the Clothesline Project when she was still in prison. Seacoast NOW was instrumental in helping June receive a governor's pardon, and today she is free.
