Take Back the Night will be held on Tuesday, March 6 and is an annual event to

Eve Ensler's The Vagina Monologues is a series of individual vignettes that
examines and challenges cultural, social, and sexual biases that are deeply
intertwined with gender roles; it seeks to give a public voice to neglected and
often taboo realities encompassing sexual intercourse, homosexual relationships,
and most importantly, sexual violence and assault.
