In the words of Dr. Martin Luther King, “ injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.” With everything that is going on in this world, our advocates and survivors are the ones who are standing up and speaking out. They are the voices for the voiceless; however, as many of you know, standing up for what is right and just is not always easy. Speaking up and out about one’s abuse often leaves that person open for criticism and blame. We live in a society that is quick to blame the victim and protect the perpetrator; however, we are beginning to see a shift as victims and survivors realize they are not alone.
Hope Pyx Global wants to shine a light on these true heroes, the survivors. The Conference on Abuse and International Book Awards is designed to provide education, resources and networking opportunities for survivors, advocates, and organizations to end abuse together and to recognize those who have overcome adversities and have begun to speak out through:
- books,
- spoken word,
- visual arts,
- music, or
- film.
This event will be a two-part event held in Houston, Texas. The conference will have speakers and exhibitors. The award ceremony will have a keynote speaker and will announce the book award winners.
There will be several categories that will be recognized during this event.
The categories consist of:
- Military Trauma Survivor
- Military Sex Trafficking Survivor
- Spoken Word
- Visual Arts
- Music
The second-part of the event will be a conference where Survivors, Social Workers, and Survivor Leaders will share their stories about how they overcame or helped others overcome their adversities. Also, tune in as they share how you combat social injustice. As William Faulkner once said, “Never be afraid to raise your voice for honesty and truth and compassion against injustice and lying and greed. If people all over the world...would do this, it would change the earth.”
Submit your favorite survivor story today or choose to help sponsor the event. In the words of Mahatma Gandhi, “Be the change you want to see in the world.”
