This is an absolutely incredible! Where can we get this ad. Also, you may want to consider another version with a white female victim and a white male prepetrator - not necessarily together. Also another version with teenages and same sex couples. Thank you!

I am in need of help and advice. I have been going through this for at least ten years. I want to get out. I feel I am in danger and is afraid. Please help.

These ads are racist. Every abuser is a white male and every victim is a minority.

But then white men are fair game for racism and prejudiced attacks.

Every race has abusers. And some cultures are designed around it. But hey god forbid they show a minority hitting his wife or the way an arab treats his wife every day.
