V-Day Annual Report 2016 - ONE BILLION RISING: RISE FOR REVOLUTION 1 | Page 13

GLOBAL
SOLIDARITY
OBR rests on the truth that it is the force of “people power”
that will transform our present global structure. In this
spirit, each participating city and country applied the 2016
call to action in its local context. Using dance as a form of
protest and a gathering mechanism, events, rallies, flash
mobs, artistic uprisings, panel discussions, and concerts
took place in locations where women felt safe or deserved
to feel safe. These actions took place in community with
other activists or alone, with people of all abilities.
