Inspired by and in cooperation with the ‘Carry That Weight’ project of Columbia student Emma Sulkowitz, UCLA students join to show support for survivors of sexual assault. After contributing their experiences or those of survivors close to them, by writing them onto a mattress, the mattresses are carried all over campus. The art and activism project aims to symbolize the weight of sexual assault and emphasize the importance of communal support for survivors.
