in memory of anene booysen the tipping point for women in sa: self-defence training for all women and children in sa please let’s tell anene booysen’s family that we south african women are going to take the rape bull by the horns ourselves! 85% of our safety is in our own hands. self-defence is guaranteed to reduce rape by up to 30%. in kenya 1 million women and children have been taught how to fight and get away, among them a girl of 6, a 15 year old who got away from 3 men with guns and a 60 year old woman who fought off an attacker. kenyan trainers will come to sa to train us for free. i have collected money for their air fares. all we need is help to support a three week training programme, which will teach thousands of women and children within a few hours how to fight, get away and report. this is not judo, nor karate. it is knowing how to fight dirty to get away and report. it works! please, if you want to stop this evil wave of violence against our women and children, work with us. this training can be the turning point of rape in our country. this is not an appeal for money. it is a shout for us to work together to make the world sit up and notice. monicagclarke@gmail.com i protect me project
