Rec. #483: DearCatCallers





What: Noa Jansma created the Instagram account @dearcatcallers to document one month of street harassment by taking selfies with the men who catcall her and quoting what they say. It's a simple, powerful step to highlight that there are actual humans at both ends of this kind of verbal assault (although, depressingly, these men mainly seem delighted about it).

Can I nominate Jansma for an award? It feels like she's earned some sort of award for doing this.

How to get it: Find the @dearcatcallers account on Instagram and read more about the backstory in this article from The Mary Sue.
