I've taken the pledge, and I'm inviting our male readers to do the same.
Torrington's Susan B. Anthony Project, which runs a shelter and numerous other services for victims of domestic violence, is enlisting men from Northwest Connecticut to take part in its White Ribbon Campaign.
The only commitment asked of you is to add your name to the White Ribbon Pledge for Men and Boys.
And the pledge is simple: "I promise to never commit, condone or remain silent about violence against women, sexual assault and domestic violence."
Remember that famous quote, "All that is required for evil to prevail is for good men to do nothing."
Here's a simple way to teach young men in our community about respect for the women in their lives.
