Denim Day
Wear denim and join us for powerful speakers, spoken word, and poetry—an event created to spark conversation, promote healing, and raise awareness about sexual violence.
Denim Day is a global campaign that raises awareness about sexual violence and challenges harmful misconceptions surrounding consent. It began as a response to a court ruling that suggested a survivor’s clothing implied consent, sparking a movement to stand in solidarity with survivors and promote education, accountability, and respect. Wearing denim on this day serves as a visible statement against victim-blaming and a commitment to creating safer communities.
This event will provide a meaningful space for reflection, education, and empowerment. Attendees can expect powerful speakers, spoken word and poetry performances, and food, all designed to foster conversation, healing, and awareness. Denim Day is important because it not only honors survivors but also encourages individuals to take an active role in preventing sexual violence and supporting a culture of consent.
This event is hosted by LU's RSVP Center and Thompkins Health Center.
