Body Awareness Flash Mob for One Billion Rising

On February 14, 2013, Body Awareness organized a flash mob for One Billion Rising, a day of action to end violence against women and girls around the world.  Individuals gathered in Sandy Springs to dance to the song Break the Chain (see video below).  Based on the UN statistic that one in three women and girls will be raped or beaten in her lifetime, one billion people across the globe sounded a call to action to strike, dance, and rise together on Valentine’s Day 2013.  In 2014, One Billion Rising will continue on February 14 – the focus for this coming year will be One Billion Rising for Justice.  To learn more, visit www.onebillionrising.org
