You know a woman hiding domestic violence

I wish everyone was happy and safe this holiday season, but sadly many are not. Our associate Shirley Osborne asks us to send positive energy and thoughts to one group of women.

Native American Women – Highest Rates of Abuse and Sexual Violence

Stop Domestic ViolenceNative American women suffer the highest rates of domestic abuse and sexual violence of any group of women in the United States.

Many Americans choose Sharing during the holidays, as a means of giving thanks for what they have. It would not be unreasonable to suggest that, in this spirit of giving and giving thanks, they also show some gratitude to these Native peoples upon whose lands they find their fortune. We can give thought specifically to the plight of Native American women who endure such pain and despair, and who suffer so deeply the tragedies of their sons, daughters, men and parents.

My experience is that thought often becomes action. My hope is that there is enough right thought to create right action that will right some wrongs. For even one, I give thanks.

In advance.
