MANIFEST

The woman will believe that she is strong so that those around her will see her strength, the woman will show that she can overcome everything so that the gender inequality in society will end, the woman will believe in herself so that the people around her will respect her. Fortunately, there are such women in our society and they set an example for those around them. Greetings to our women who have created themselves with their efforts at home and at work, we men will always continue to be with you. Violence against women is a sign of weakness, not power. As a society, we have to shout that we are against all kinds of violence, not just on March 8, but every day and every minute. I will continue to take photos of women in order to reveal this amazing power of women.
