Refusing to tolerate violence
In one study 65% of Indian men think women should put up with violence for the sake of the family and that women sometimes deserve to be beaten. Another survey found that 38% of the men admit they have physically abused their partners. It's no wonder that spousal abuse is often tolerated and ignored. The artisans, however, tackled it head-on, with street plays performed right in the neighborhoods. The plays were written to shame the abusers and offer help to the abused.

My husband and I were immediately taken with the picture of this top.....even without us noticing the stitchery over the sleeves. It fits well and I wear it with simple black skirt for evening events. Lovely!!! Thanks so much!!!

Trying to find hand-block prints in my size seemed impossible. Then I found MarketPlace. They had a good variety of offerings in my size, and I found just what I was looking for. I love this shirt! Not only does it fit, it's beautiful and beautifully made--not like the cheap thin T-shirts you usually find today. There are lovely embroidery details as well. I love it so much that I ordered another garment immediately, and told my friends about MarketPlace.
Lovely, Classy, Comfortable

I wear a lot of black, so this addition fit right in. The wonderful fabric is cotton, (can't beat that) so it keeps me comfy. Love the pattern, too. It's currently a little longer than I like, but once the hem's taken up it will be perfect.
