We hosted our annual Air Your Dirty Laundry event, which culminated in hundreds of t-shirts with powerful messages speaking out against violence being hung-up on makeshift washing lines. More than 400 children from Manenberg and the surrounding areas, together with representatives from the South African Police force, the Ottery Fire Department and Melomed Ambulance Services, painted t-shirts with powerful anti-violence messages. The event forms part of the national 16 Days of Activism for No Violence Against Women and Children national campaign. Images taken by Arianna Azzolini.
