- The world of "The Handmaids Tale" is a world where women are put into slavery and taken away from their children and are put through rape, violence which no women should be put through and also wear uniform to show that they are slaves
- I think that the tv show has a say in the world we live in today because some women are still being treated like this and it hard for them to escape.
- I think that this silent protest actions represent the fact that some women are still wearing handmaids costumes because people protest for them to wear it and are still getting treated as salves.

Stacy, I'm not sure I understand your third statement. "...still wearing handmaid's costumes"? You understand that the show is sci-fi, correct? Women have never really worn these costumes. (They do seem to be inspired by 15th century Puritan dress.)
