SIN BY SILENCE | An educational resource on DOMESTIC VIOLENCE; BUT where is the part about how BATTERERS and ABUSERS often get CUSTODY?

November 16, 2009 — Claudine Dombrowski

 

Looks good — but where is the part about how batterers and abusers often get custody,

the years of exhausting and financially back-breaking litigation, the damage to the children, etc?

==============================

One in four American women will experience domestic violence in her lifetime. October was Domestic Violence Awareness Month, which aims to educate the public about ending the cycle of violence – something that the Convicted Women Against Abuse (CWAA), the first group initiated and led by inmates in the US prison system, has been doing since 1989. 

WMM new release SIN BY SILENCE by Olivia Klaus profiles the extraordinary women of CWAA, who have worked from behind prison walls to shatter misconceptions and change laws for battered women. This essential tool is the most comprehensive educational resource available on domestic violence and features more than two hours of bonus discussion videos, including:

* Violence and Abuse: What is Abuse?, Warning Signs, Why She Stays, A Batterer’s Perspective, and more

* Law Enforcement and Corrections: Interviews with law enforcement leaders on their response to domestic violence and inmate and staff perspectives on the prison system

* Interviews with experts on abusive relationships

* Legal Aspects: CWAA founder Brenda Clubine’s full hearing and interviews with a former juror and expert witness

"A powerful and compelling movie about injustice… Brenda['s] intelligence, passion, and determination to keep working until all battered women are released is deeply inspiring."- Nancy Lemon, J.D.; Author, Domestic Violence Law; Lecturer, Berkeley Law
