Gen1.0Victims

=Victims= We each took a couple of minutes yesterday and came up with a victim character that we would base the events of the narrative around if it was our own choice. These character sketches could include anything relevant: social, emotional, physical, psychological, intellectual or something to do with the events they are involved in. The ensemble then discussed each character in regard to what implications this has for the following:
 * the other characters (__bystander__, __victim__, parents, teachers, etc)
 * the narrative
 * demonising the bully
 * victim blaming
 * empowering the bystander to act
