According to SafeHorizon.org, more than four million women experience physical assault and rape by their partners. 1 in 3 female homicide victims are murdered by their current or former partner every year.
Leslie Morgan Steiner was in "crazy love" with a man who routinely abused her and threatened her life. Steiner tells the dark story of her relationship, correcting misconceptions many people hold about victims of domestic violence, and explaining how we can all help break the silence. As part of the TEDTalks series, Leslie is an incredible voice of domestic violence victims, and she tells her story with honesty, strength and courage. I was covered in goosebumps by the end of her story, and incredibly inspired.
TEDTalks brings together the world's leading thinkers and doers with talks of 18 minutes or less — and each one is powerful in its own right.
Leslie's story must be shared with the world — so please SHARE this video with your friends on Facebook.
