BLACKOUT

A coordinated social media movement to honor victims of sex trafficking and redirect attention to what really matters

Download this graphic to post during BLACKOUT events. The barely-visible design represents the victims who were silenced—almost invisible, but still there.

What is BLACKOUT?

BLACKOUT is a grassroots social media protest movement. When society focuses on trivial events while ignoring the crisis of sex trafficking, we coordinate a BLACKOUT.

This production honors the victims of sex trafficking who did not survive—those who were silenced, made invisible, and forgotten. When we post BLACKOUT, we're saying: "This is what matters. Not that."

It's a soft form of protest. It's a way to redirect attention. It's a movement to make people stop, think, and realize what's truly important.

Wait for the Signal

When something trivial dominates the news cycle, I'll send the message: "BLACKOUT"
