If it only required bravery to be able to disclose abuse, it would be way easier for victims to do so. All survivors are already braver than they should have to be. Survivors need safety, access, and other people to be brave with them to stand up against rape culture.

Facts do not cease to exist because they are ignored.

As they say, “it takes a village.” It’s not a coincidence that many abusers just magically skirt responsibility and accountability while their victims are often ostracized and ridiculed. In many cases, enabling abuse is abuse.

Dear Survivor, You matter more than you may even realize. I’m so glad you’re here.

Okay, hear me out though...An abuser putting out a public statement declaring their innocence while claiming the victim is lying, is, well, not actually proof of innocence. Morally speaking if someone is ok with SA'ing someone they are likely going to be ok with lying about it.

“We can disagree and still love each other unless your disagreement is rooted in my oppression and denial of my humanity and right to exist”

28 women spoke up about Donald Trump sexually assaulting them. The message this sends for ALL survivors is catastrophic.

The best post-election political analysis I’ve seen.

No one is ever allowed to hurt you. It was not your fault.
