BOOKS, MOVIES, SONGS AND MORE FOR THE 16 DAYS OF ACTIVISM – DAY 16

 

BOOKS, MOVIES, SONGS AND MORE THAT HAVE CHANGED THE WAY WE THINK ABOUT DOMESTIC AND FAMILY VIOLENCE.

Day 16 - three songs

Luka - Suzanne Vega nominated by Diane Thomson - Luka was released on the Solitude Standing album by Suzanne Vega in 1987. It will touch your heart and in so doing you might be called to act on behalf of the victims of domestic violence.

Running up that hill (make a deal with God)  - Kate Bush nominatd by Rev’d Jamee Callard. The song imagines making a deal with God for partners to swap places and experience things from the other persons perspective of the relationship.

Every breadth you take - Sting nominated by Jenny Clark - I used to love this song but since I have leant more about coercive control it just sends shivers up my spine.
