Abuse of Power

Australian of the Year Grace Tame often uses this phrase.  She reminds us all that child sexual abuse; sexual harassment; sexual violence; rape; coercive control and domestic abuse are all examples of abuse of power.

She nails it with this simple phrase and reminds the powers that be regularly that they too, indulge themselves in this abuse.

So as part of my feminist poster series, which now stands at 7, I printed this one up using a powerful deep green and vintage wood type.







Along with "Not Just a  Daughter", "I'm Speaking", "Believe Her", "Feminism back by popular demand", "Nevertheless she persisted", and "Enough is Enough", "Abuse of Power" is now in my online shop; and the Deckled Edge Press online shop (and all are of course available at the studio).

We just have to keep on saying it, even tho we are all so weary of it, we just have to keep on.
