The documentary Invisible War, directed by Kirby Dick, reveals that women in the military are being sexually harassed and raped and the blame is being put almost entirely on them. Due to the fact that the military runs by its own code of law, women are prosecuted and these horrendous activities are covered up. The film presents the original enthusiasm of women joining the military and then that being utterly ruined and their lives often destroyed by the acts done to them and then the everlasting repercussions. Since most of society is unaware of this, there has not been political action to help women in the military. At most there are programs that don't work and tell women that they should do their best to prevent rape instead of just advertising that people shouldn't rape.
HERE's a link to the trailer of the film!
If you watch it and also find yourself shocked and disturbed by what occurs in our very own military then sign the online petition.
While watching the movie I found myself absolutely disgusted and shocked being a female myself I can definitely emotionally connect with these women. I believe that no one, regardless of gender, should ever be harmed while giving up their lives to serve our country and protect our freedom.
