description: When disclosing limited records acknowledging the month of April as “Sexual Assault Awareness Month,” the City of Mercer Island (Washington) denied holding conversations about Teresa Williams as a woman, who [1] was coerced to engage in sexual activity she didn’t consent to during her employment with the Iron Mountain Police Department (IMPD located in the State of Michigan); [2] filed a charge of employment discrimination pursuant to Title VII of the 1964 and 1991 Civil Rights Act as a direct consequence of the sexual coercion she experienced; [3] was informed by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) that her charge of employment discrimination would not be referred to the Department of Justice (DOJ) for prosecution; [4] is not legally represented by the DOJ in the complaint she filed with the United States District Court in Michigan; [5] may be seen (by the courts) as having “less merit than” other U.S government employees, who were legally represented by the DOJ following the filing of their complaint pursuant to Title VII of the 1964 and 1991 Civil Rights Act. As a matter of principle, the Association for the Advancement of Civil Liberties (AACL) unequivocally condemns violence committed against women irrespective of their racial backgrounds, their sexual orientations, their national origins, their religious affiliations, their disability status and/or their age groups. It is the judgment of the AACL (based on the definition provided by the University of Missouri – Kansas City for what constitutes “sexual coercion”) that the Title VII complaint filed by Teresa Williams should have been referred by the EEOC to the DOJ for prosecution. Regrettably, this didn’t happen. The AACL wishes Teresa Williams well in her future endeavors. According to the City of Mercer Island, Washington; the goal of Sexual Assault Awareness Month (SAAM) “is to raise public awareness about sexual violence and educate communities on how to prevent it. The attention SAAM generates is an opportunity to energize and expand prevention efforts throughout the year. By proclaiming support for survivors and their families and speaking out loud about how sexual violence affects our communities, we spotlight the issue, and engage the whole community in this important conversation. When we allow space in our communities for informed conversations – in our schools, in our homes, in the public square – we signal to survivors we want to hear from them, and we empower them to speak up and seek help. Hearing ‘I believe you, I want to help support you, and I know where you can get help right now’ is an important first message all survivors need to begin healing. (…) Individuals can embrace their voices to show their support for survivors, stand up to victim blaming, shut down rape jokes, correct harmful misconceptions, promote every day consent, and practice healthy communications with children.” Be well. Take care. Keep yourselves at arms distance. Michael A. Ayele (a.k.a) W Anti-Racist Human Rights Activist Audio-Visual Media Analyst Anti-Propaganda Journalist
