Walk of Shame
By Emilie Cheung
AWI Winner, August 2019
Content heads up: sexual assault

Discuss in breakout groups…
• What did you think?
• What did you feel?

What did you think? What did you feel?
● Did not like that film.
● that was tough
● Hit too close
● it was hard too watch
● brough up a lot of feelings
● it was uncomfortable to watch as a male i felt guilty
kind of
● In our group someone shared that they had never seen
anything like that before
● I just dont know why so please dont think im judging
her, but why would she leave with him in the first
place?
● anger and sadness
● i also agree with it hitting too close to home it was too
much
● Couldnt speak about it
● he promised her food and that's it
● umm food???
● he suggested just to hangout
● man I don't wanna miss this
● This was rough...it could be easy to blame the female,
however, there is responsibility with both parties
● he was being nice to her
● It made me extremely anxious and uncomfortable. I had
trouble putting it into words with my group.
● b ecause she was drunk?
● she might have liked him and didnt think anything of it
● Although she went with him, she never gave verbal
consent
● felt angry becuase of how as a woman its our fault because she was
drunk or left with him so she "asked for it"
● regardless its not her fault
● being drunk could lower expectations
● I felt he might have put something in her drink. He appeared like a
nice guy to hang out with.
● alcohol plays a role as well
● ad that someone takes advantage of someone who is under the
influence...The inability to say "NO" doesn't mean "yes"
● It's normal today to believe that if someone leaves a party with you,
something will happen. Which shouldn't be the normal expectations
● He wasn't outright with his intentions
● no means no
● too many people are ok disrespecting eachother that when it comes
to a situation like this they automatic think its ok to place hands on
anybody
● Never the victims fault// he should have left her alone
● can not hear
● social distance
● She should have trusted her gut and he shoulda recognized that she
was not sober enuf to make a decision
● The issue was she didn't explicitly say "no"...so there is the
assumption that that means "yes"
● Even if he saw her coming with him as consent she revoked it
multiple times when she said she wanted to go home
● was he sober?
● great question
● yes alcohol can interfere with decision making
● the friend shouldnt have left her i feel like they should stick together
● he seemed more sober than her

What are some practices that
help support your wellness?
● buddy system
● it doesn't matter if he was sober or not
doing things with out her consent is not
okay
● Exercise! Builds self esteem and
pumps happy hormones in your body
● eating healthy
● sleep
● meditation
● drinking water
● talking to someone to vent
● enjoying the outdoors and activities
involving that
● walks
● prayer
● Reading. Being able to enter another
world and relax from this one for a bit
● taking your medications! lol
● these are conversations hopefully we have
with our children, being slipped a date drug
can happen any time, even among "friends"
● keeping stressors to a minimum
● counting to 10 before I blow up on someone
with attitude lol
● going on drives
● writing in a journal, get outside for a bit,
mediation, eat well, and keep hydrated
● talking with friends who support listening
● eating healthy
● hobbies
● without judgement

Purpose
By Victor O'Frank
AWI Winner, December 2016
Content heads up: depression

A In my
mind
Poll: Where did you experience
this film the most?
B In my
body

What did you think?
What did you feel?
● I felt hopeful
● i love taking still pics
● reflective
● Made me tear
● my escape
● i found being a creator is what its all about
● enjoy your journey (life) b/c death is inevitable
● makes me want to pick up a camera
● life is about finding love, love is what brings hope, community and
togetherness.. the only thing in this world that makes you feel not
alone
● enjoy living in the moment
● xpressing yourself being mindful and living life
● i also felt that i am not alone ...there is so many stories

How can we support ourselves and others?
● aware of the importance of not being stuck
in a routine, especially during this
quarantine
● Check on each other
● always be there and be open minded
● smile
● being aware
● check in with one another
● work on being in the moment
● show empathy
● Be the kind person in the world to notice
when someone needs a smile
● being there for others, take a moment enjoy
what you have
● Be willing to share with others and be
willing to listen to what other people want to
share
● just listening and not being judgmental
● help each other
● by being there for ourselves and others
when we are going through hard times and
even when everything is great
● feeling good and helping others feel good
● I think just being aware of what you are truly
feeling and not just getting in a routine
● i can say that having bear or bunny hunts, for
the kids or even for ourselves
● I noticed he was hugging someone
● The best way we can help us is to reach out to
friends, family and strangers and be patient
● Realize that we all are human and could be
going through something...be kind!
● I like to post on my social media if I am gong
through an episode of depression or anxiety
and being open and raw because I always get
feedback from at least one person who relates
and feels so much better knowing someone
they know is going through the same thing
● things like this
● maybe sometimes we need a hug
● Dont isolate yourself, talk
● group hug
● Being supportive in any way we can
● sometimes just companionship not having to
say anything
