"Evil demanded little of me – it merely asked me to stay silent, to do nothing. And I complied."

-Josie Ferguson, The Silence In Between

"Mozart said that music is not in the notes but in the silence in between. I think that's where our souls are – hidden in that silence."

-Josie Ferguson, The Silence In Between

"These are stories from the past, but they are still echoing now, in the present. As I write this, Russian forces are using rape as a weapon of war against Ukrainian women; deported mothers are being separated from their children in the US; border walls are being built and fortified at an unprecedented rate across the globe (there are currently seventy-four in existence). But this much is clear: when walls are built, people will find a way over or under them; when families are separated, they do everything in their power to be reunited; and when women are victims, they find the courage to speak up, to band together, to survive."
