Natural unicorn quietude is a wondrous thing. But an unnatural hush has come over unicorn populations around the world. A "culture of silence" disseminates the misinformation that unicorns don't exist, thereby perpetuating a vicious cycle. Something natural goes into hiding, essentially becoming invisible. Unicorns' needs are hidden and go unrecognized, thus perpetuating poor public policy and fueling the culture of silence. The diagram above* shows how the vicious cycle can be broken. * Inspired by Quality Education for Social Transformation, "Reversing the Cycle of Silence" (2001)
