This: “5-10% of anorexics die within 10 years after contracting the disease and 18-20% of anorexics will be dead after 20 years.” is horrifyng.
I think it’s especially important at a women’s college to take on such a guerilla project, because women are disproportiantely the target of such a campaign.
I’d love to see this article in the Profile–the (relatively low Profile) student newspaper, or some sort of news bulleting that links to your post.
I have a friend in a wheelchair who carries a tire deflator mechanism with her (the small pointed thing that presses on the air valve to let air out) and when she sees people parked in the disabled spaces who are not disabled, she wheels up to the car and systematically deflates all the tires. It’s a small action that makes her feel empowered, points out the problem and appropriately focuses her anger.
I wonder if you might get stickers made that you carry with you for whenever you see such a sticker, and can then replace it with your important and creative art action? Also, keeping sight of the times you see and do the action–record it here. It could just be, date, place, and then an image. Thanks for sharing this.
