The #MeToo and Time's Up movements have sparked a significant cultural shift in the United States around sexual harassment and abuse by creating an environment of support, rather than one that punishes and silences women and men who come forward to tell their stories about abuse of all kinds. The Cape Verdean community faces a variety of complex challenges and barriers in addressing intimate partner violence. This article chronicles my experiences reporting the study findings from the Cape Verdean Women's Project (CVWP), which included Cape Verdean women's perceptions of intimate violence and their recommendations for social change.
#MeToo 和 Time's Up 运动通过营造一种支持而非惩罚和噤声的环境，在美国围绕性骚扰和虐待问题引发了重大的文化转变，使那些站出来讲述各种形式虐待经历的男女不再感到孤立无援。在处理亲密伴侣暴力问题时，佛得角社区面临着各种复杂的挑战和障碍。本文记录了我在报告佛得角妇女项目（CVWP）研究结果时的经历，其中包括佛得角妇女对亲密暴力的看法以及她们对社会变革的建议。
