Update: Live coverage from the Guardian.
Last week the announcement for 1 Billion Rising proclaimed February 14 as a global demonstration. This one-day event will be held today, a call for one billion women around the world to walk away from their homes, businesses, and jobs, and join together to dance in a show of collective strength. The word "billion" refers to the one billion women who are survivors of abuse.
Trigger Warning: Artists from around the world have interpreted rising up against violence in many different ways. If you are triggered by viewing violence, be aware.
