I believe that this is a very strong picture depicting what my research paper is about. The No More campaign is main goal is to end sexual assault across college campuses. They hold many programs and incentives for people on campus and outside of colleges to learn more about sexual assault. I also believe that the quote on the photo, "Well, she was drunk," is extremely powerful in its meaning. Many people blame the victim on their sexual assault by saying that it would have never happened if they had not been drinking. However, that is not the case. Alcohol does prove to lower inhibitions and decision-making but it is not the reason why someone is sexually assaulted. If they are intoxicated, then they are not in the right mind to make any decision regarding if they want to have sex or not, therefore, no one should engage in sexual behavior. It is not because they were drunk, but it is because someone took advantage of the fact that they were.
