- Here's a wonderful Ted Talk about domestic violence.
And while we're talking about domestic violence, I saw this video on Buzzfeed about domestic violence in public and how people react, when its guy-on-girl/girl-on-guy.
The video is presented by the Mankind Initiative which aims to help men in domestic violence situations.
