This magazine’s main goal is to call attention to women as the main victims of rape. More than that its goal is to help these women through the healing process after surviving such a traumatic event. Survivor is written and illustrated in a way that gives power back to survivors and reminds them it’s not their fault. This magazine is largely a collection of poems and illustrations that cover themes of rape, child molestation, power, control, and survival. The ending of this issue lists biographies of all contributors that are throughout this source. Another important theme throughout this text is that of victim blaming.
