Why Project I'm Alive Actually Attractive

Project I'm Alive, an attractive and powerful docudrama, tells the story of women's experience of sexual violence from prehistory to the present. Women and children suffer at the hands of sexually out of control adults. The resulting trauma can last for decades.

The mission of the project strives to end sexual violence. In the meantime, offering prevention measures and getting help to all who live with the post-traumatic stress disorder of surviving sexual violence are priorities.

What is the difference between four cave men returning from a hunt who smell a young woman whose red rain has just come and gang rape her and four men who drug a woman's drink in a bar to drag her to the cave called hotel to gang rape her? Project I'm Alive answers those questions.

Poised to begin production in November 2015, a step back took place been taken to re - tool the screenplay, develop a complimentary novel, The ReVengers Alliance, and an original piece of jewelry for protection. Three siblings survived insane violence at the hands of their parents are coming to the cast.  A multi - talented musician and dancer cast for the lead. The complete cast presented in January 2016. All music will be original compositions.

Project I'm Alive just got kicked up multiple notches. Together, we will bring all our best energies, gifts, and talents to create a better world for women and children.

Project I'm Alive Twitter Q & A

Project I'm Alive will host a Twitter Q & A, Wednesday, November 4th at 9 PM MST/AZT (11 PM EST, 10 PM CST and 8 PM PST). Project Partners will answer your questions submitting from the time of posting until 9 PM MST/AZT on November 4.

                  

Raise questions about the dram side of the production or documentary or both. If you have questions for how to prevent this happening to anyone in your family, raise those kinds of questions. If it has already happened and you are interested in best practices to get help, raise those questions.

All questions are appropriate. We will speak honestly to you about your questions.

I'm Alive, a docudrama, currently in development tells the story of women's experience of sexual violence form prehistory to the present.

What is the difference between a prehistoric man who hits a woman in the head to drag her to a cave to rape her and a man who drugs a woman's drink in a club to drag her to a cave called hotel to rape her? Are males predisposed to the behavior of rape. Is it in the male biological programming? Is rape encoded in male DNA?
Are females predisposed to be available to rape? Is it in female biological programming? Is being raped encoded into female DNA? 

Project I'm Alive responds to these questions with immediately applicable information enhancing women's personal safety plus an action plan to minimize the potential for these criminal acts to take place and what to do when they do. 

The docudrama will include two components. Dramatic presentation will include two looks into the phenomenon of rape. First, viewers will share the observation of a prehistoric man brutalize a young woman, rape, and leave her to die without feeling. Second, viewers will observe a contemporary man drug a woman's drink to brutally gang rape her with friends while videoing the experience and leave her to die without feeling. 

The second component reveals how real women respond. Real women will share their stories of the terrorists acts of sexual violence acted out on them as little girls and teens many times by persons known to them; their family members, friends of family, and peers. Military women will share their experiences of sexual violence while serving their country in theaters of war called friendly fire.

Attention will also focus on the post - traumatic stress disorder affecting women for decades beyond the trauma. Many are mid to late 30's and 40's before asking themselves if their earlier experiences have affected their adult lives and relationships.

Sexual violence is a criminal act of terrorism demanding equal protection under the law. Sexual violence affects women everywhere on Planet Earth; every nation, age, stage, color, culture, class, level of ability, and religion. SEXUAL VIOLENCE NEEDS TO END.

Your Voice Makes a Difference

According to the Department of Justice , Sexual assault is any type of sexual contact or behavior that occurs without the explicit consent of the recipient (who must be an adult). Falling under the definition of sexual assault are sexual activities as forced sexual intercourse, forcible sodomy, child molestation, incest, fondling, and attempted rape.

Lest we forget, there is no place and no relationship immune from  this madness. It happens in government. It happens in the military. It happens at church. It happens at school. It happens at home. How are you using your voice to make a difference in and stop sexual assault? Your voice makes a difference.

WHAT QUALIFIES US TO CREATE A FILM ON SEXUAL VIOLENCE?

WHAT QUALIFIES US TO CREATE A FILM ON SEXUAL VIOLENCE?

Merriam - Webster's Online Dictionary offers these definitions for the word QUALIFY. It means to : to give (someone) the necessary skill or knowledge to do a particular job or activity, to have the necessary skill or knowledge to do a particular job or activity, to have the qualifications to do something, and or to pass an exam or complete a course of study that is required in order to do something.

Recently, I was asked what qualifies Bonnie and I to create a docudrama addressing men's sexual violence and assault of women from prehistory to the present. As many of you who read me on occasion know, I live for great questions. This time was no different. 

Bonnie and I taught our children when they were young, they could always tell us anything or ask us anything. They took us at our word and brought us many conversations that it made it necessary to keep our poker faces on.

We have had to maintain the same kind of face when women have told us horrendous stories of violence at the hands of their fathers, brothers, other members of their families, friends of their families, and others. Over the years, we have developed the ability to within five minutes of meeting a woman know whether or not, she has been a victim of sexual assault.

Women who experienced sexual assault as children, teens and adults sought us out to share their stories. We have never advertised our work, run an ad, or passed out a business card. Something about us and our work as licensed social workers in the State of Ohio, our work formally serving the church in offices and roles of ministry, and our expertise in the field of human relations seem to have placed an invisible marquee running around us that said, "It is safe to tell Oscar and Bonnie. They can help."

To that end we served thousands of women from every continent except Antarctica. It was first one on one either in person or by phone. Women shared with their friends and group work developed. The coming of the Internet made the international outreach possible.

One final note before credentials and degrees. We have never asked for or charged any woman a fee for service.

Bonnie earned an Associate Degree from the Columbus State Community College in Columbus, Ohio in Mental Health, Mental Retardation, and Chemical Dependency. She graduate magna cum laude with a perfect 4.0. Side Note: She convinced her faculty that I would prove to be an asset. I would serve Columbus State as Adjunct Faculty. 

She completed her Bachelor of Science in Social Work from Capital University, an historic Lutheran institution. Again, she graduated with academic honors and selected for the University Honor Society. She was awarded the License to Practice Social Work after successfully complete the state exam.

She pursued graduate studies in Chemical Dependency Counseling at the Methodist Theological School in Ohio in Delaware, Ohio.

After completing service in the United States Air Force, I earned a Bachelor of Arts from Kentucky State University, an HBCU in French with minors in Spanish and Sociology. Immediately following undergraduate school, I was ordained to ministry and served a mainstream church until I would return to graduate school.

Fifteen years after completing undergraduate, I earned a Master of Divinity from the Methodist theological School in Ohio in Delaware, Ohio. The emphases for study were pastoral service, counseling, and community service. Fifteen years later, I earned a Master of Science in Justice from the University of Phoenix in Phoenix, Arizona.

As professionals with earned degrees and retired from primary vocations, there is work yet for us to do for which we are competent by education, experience, purpose and passion.

If further details should prove of interest or if you share our purpose and passion to make a difference in the lives or women, we invite you to communicate. Email us your questions, thoughts or comments to projectimalive@gmail.com.

Women survive the sexual assaults of men from prehistory to the present. This socially unacceptable 21st Century behavior has populated the Earth in every habitable geography with a diverse gene pool giving rise to established families, cultures and nations.

Are contemporary men and women so different from the men and women of the Paleolithic Era? Are 21st Century men as predisposed to sexual assault as were their prehistoric forefathers? Are 21st Century women as predisposed to be available to sexual assaults as were there prehistoric fore mothers?

What is the difference between four cave men who discover a young woman alone who drag her to the cave to sexually assault her leaving her bloody, battered, and near death and four men who drug a woman’s drink in a club to drag her to the cave called hotel to sexually assault her to leave her bloody, battered, and near death? Is there a difference?

From her Paleolithic birth to the 21st Century, Eee Maah a.k.a. Emma Martin and six other women journey through time with one conclusion. Men always hurt women. It is only a matter of when. 

Real women in real time will share their real stories of sexual assault from the hands of their family as children, teachers from their schools, from their churches, from the military, and other public or private sector jobs. 

Is this the human reality among women everywhere? Does civilization, spirituality, and justice make a difference in the lives of women? 

Project I’m Alive, the docudrama responds to the questions, proposing measures to prevent sexual assault, and interventions to treat the PTSD affecting women living with the trauma of sexual assault.

For the First Time the First Face of Project I'm Alive

October 12  Meet the cast of Project I''m Alive!

For the first time the first face of Project I'm Alive with the message, "Rape is Wrong" in all times and in all places.

No adult woman, teen girl, or little girl should know the experience of rape. "Rape is Wrong".

In a civilized, spiritual and just world, no one should have to live in fear of sexual assault. In a civilized, spiritual, and just world, "Rape is Wrong".

The Mission of Project I'm Alive is multi - tiered.

1. It is to make clear the sexually aggressive and violently oppressive behavior of men towards women from prehistory to the present in all its ugliness from the cradle to the grave, from the family, to the church, to schools, to the military and politics; is wrong and now criminal with consequences.
2. It is to assert best practices for the prevention of sexual assault.
3. It is to make known treatment options to all who have suffered experiences of sexual assault and live with the post traumatic stress disorder resulting from sexual assault.
4. To recommend strategies for developing a better world for women and children.

Project I'm Alive will not assert what is appropriate sexual behavior between consenting adults but clearly asserts no one need be harmed in the exercise of this biological imperative.

Welcome to Project I'm Alive's New Blog

I'm Alive, a docudrama, currently in development tells the story of women's experience of sexual violence from prehistory to the present.

What is the difference between a prehistoric man who hits a woman in the head to drag her to a cave to rape her and a man who drugs a woman's drink in a club to drag her to a cave called hotel to rape her? Are males predisposed to the behavior of rape. Is it in the male biological programming? Is rape encoded in male DNA?
Are females predisposed to be available to rape? Is it in female biological programming? Is being raped encoded into female DNA? 

Project I'm Alive responds to these questions with immediately applicable information enhancing women's personal safety plus an action plan to minimize the potential for these criminal acts to take place and what to do when they do. 

The docudrama will include two components. Dramatic presentation will include two looks into the phenomenon of rape. First, viewers will share the observation of a prehistoric man brutalize a young woman, rape, and leave her to die without feeling. Second, viewers will observe a contemporary man drug a woman's drink to brutally gang rape her with friends while videoing the experience and leave her to die without feeling. 

The second component reveals how real women respond. Real women will share their stories of the terrorists acts of sexual violence acted out on them as little girls and teens many times by persons known to them; their family members, friends of family, and peers. Military women will share their experiences of sexual violence while serving their country in theaters of war called friendly fire.

Attention will also focus on the post - traumatic stress disorder affecting women for decades beyond the trauma. Many are mid to late 30's and 40's before asking themselves if their earlier experiences have affected their adult lives and relationships.

Sexual violence is a criminal act of terrorism crying demanding equal protection under the law for women and justice. Sexual violence affects women everywhere on Planet Earth; every nation, age, stage, color, culture, class, level of ability, and religion. SEXUAL VIOLENCE NEEDS TO END.
