A heads up to all ‘Law and Order’ fans, you’re in for this on Sunday. Enjoy…
Via Truth Revolt:
On Sunday, Vice President Joe Biden will be co-hosting a Law and Order: SVU marathon on USA Network with star Mariska Hargitay in order to raise awareness regarding domestic violence. The marathon will include public service announcements about domestic violence and sexual assault, according to Jezebel.com, connected with the White House’s new public relations campaign on the issues.
The marathon will run for 14 hours, and is designed to mark National Domestic Violence Awareness Month. Hargitay’s Joyful Heart Foundation and the NO MORE Campaign will partner with Biden on the project.
Hargitay announced:
Despite the progress we as a nation have made in the movement to end domestic violence and sexual assault, much work remains. Society continues to misplace blame and shame on survivors — both women and men. That has to end. I am so profoundly grateful to the vice president, who continues to use his voice — and office — to speak boldly about these issues and stand up for survivors.
