RantCrush Top 5: October 20, 2016

Today is Purple Thursday, a part of Domestic Violence Awareness Month. Today, people are encouraged to wear purple to show solidarity with victims of domestic violence. This issue affects more Americans than a lot of people realize–according to the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence: “On average, nearly 20 people per minute are physically abused by an intimate partner in the United States. During one year, this equates to more than 10 million women and men.” 

Today is #PurpleThursday! Please share this infographic to raise awareness – and don’t forget to wear purple! @cpedvcoalition #DVAM2016 pic.twitter.com/e0oGNd67qS
