In 1976, Del Martin’s "Battered Wives" exposed the realities of domestic violence, the legal system’s failures, and how sexism, among other factors, fuels abuse. Her work helped shape the movement for change. #WomensHistoryMonth #giveherherflowers

Mari Sandoz used her incredible talent to shine a light on difficult truths. In "Old Jules", she sparked conversations about the prevalence of DV, calling for greater societal awareness and intervention. #WHM #GiveHerHerFlowers
