Many women write personal letters in solidarity with complainant in nun rape case with hashtag #WithTheNuns
Hundreds of women took to social media on Wednesday to write letters — handwritten notes in most cases — to the Catholic nun who had accused bishop Franco Mulakkal of raping her in a show of solidarity, sistership, empathy, and resistance.
There were also those who addressed their letters to all the nuns who have been at the receiving end of the Church’s wrath for standing up for one of their own. Such personal notes, posted with hashtags such as #WithTheNuns and #Avalkkoppam, soon evolved into a campaign. Some of them encouraged others to write to the sisters at solidarity2sisters@gmail.com.
