Tune into A Path Appears:
Violence and Solutions
Monday, February 9 on PBS, 10pm ET.
In A Path Appears, Nicholas Kristof and Sheryl WuDunn explore the programs successfully supporting and tackling cultural norms that help gender based violence thrive.
At the Women’s Resource Center, a shelter, aid, and advocacy organization for battered women, they meet Ayonna Johnson, a legal advocate who gives them a first-hand look at how the legal system often works against abused women. Brave survivors share their experiences about the often-difficult reality of leaving a domestic abuser behind.
From the other angle, we meet Men Stopping Violence educator, Sulaiman Nuriddin, who works directly with men who have abused their partners to help them change their behavior. Through these journeys, A Path Appears offers a vital perspective on the work of addressing both the immediate needs of the survivors and the larger mission at hand — creating a cultural shift that will end domestic violence.
