Vigil Held To Support Rape Victims

Nearly 300 people gathered at Memorial Church for the annual Take Back the Night rally, organized by the Coalition Against Sexual Violence and the Radcliffe Union of Students, to support victims of rape and sexual assault. The event aimed to highlight the prevalence of sexual violence within the Harvard community. The rally included poetry readings, candlelight vigils, and personal testimonies from survivors, fostering an atmosphere of healing and empowerment. Participants also marched through the campus, chanting against sexual violence, and held another vigil at the MAC Quad.
