PeterEllis.org.nz applauds the
introduction of Black Ribbon Day on November 25 that was recently announced
by the Black Ribbon Coordinator Alastair Laing (Tel 021 257 8947) Mr Laing has announced that Black
ribbons are worn on the day by women and men who are encouraging all women
and men to speak out against violence towards men. PeterEllis.org.nz is an
organisation committed to the end of violence in all it's forms, and it is
therefore appropriate that the existing White Ribbon campaign (concerned
about violence towards women) be complemented by a campaign that highlights
previously neglected concerns. The PeterEllis web site www.peterellis.co.nz has long highlighted
the existing epidemic of false allegations of sexual abuse that should
concern all New Zealanders. News reports say that police have charged
290 people, mainly women, with this offence in just the last
year. The actual number of perpetrators may be expected to be
considerably larger, with devastating consequences for their victims. The organisation also supports the
concerns of male victims of other forms of violence by women, including
physical and emotional abuse. Women are also commonly perpetrators of
parental alienation where children are the victims.
