Red Dress Project: Honoring Indigenous Women
Description
Red Dress Day across Canada honors missing and murdered Indigenous women, girls, and two-spirit people, with stats showing theyre six times more likely to be murdered than non-Indigenous women. The REDress Project, started by artist Jaime Black-Morsette, involves hanging red dresses in public spots to raise awareness. Jaimes non-profit aims to build arts programs for Indigenous women, girls, and two-spirit people, funded by donations. Despite slow systemic change, grassroots power surges as people unite to demand justice.
