Exhibit explores common myths of sexual violence : compareme

Fifth in a series of stories during Sexual Assault Awareness Month.
An exhibit that explores common myths associated with sexual violence currently is on display at Baptist Health Hardin in Eliza­bethtown.
The exhibit, titled “What Were You Wearing?,” is meant to raise awareness and challenge the myth that sexual violence is provoked by a victim’s clothing.
The hospital is hosting the exhibit in partnership with Silverleaf Sexual Trauma Recovery Services of Elizabethtown,
Baptist Health Hardin nurse and SANE/Forensic program manager Sarah Tovar said the idea for the installation originated at the Uni­ver­sity of Arkansas. Stu­dent survivors of sexual assault, through interviews, shared their stories and what they were wearing when they were assaulted. From there, an installation was created that featured clothes resembling what the students described and their story of what happened.
