What is Reclaim the Night?
Since the 1970s, Reclaim the Night has been a powerful grassroots campaign fighting for women’s safety, equality, and the right to walk freely without fear of violence. Originally sparked in the UK by the Yorkshire Ripper murders and widespread harassment, the movement gave women a unified voice to demand safer streets and greater protection under the law. Today, Reclaim The Night marches are held across cities as a bold stand against gender-based violence and discrimination.
In recent history the event has taken place in our city and on our campuses, in reaction to the #MeToo movement and continuing to demand for women’s safety and equality. But our work isn’t done… and Reclaim the Night is back and bigger than ever.
