📄 New paper out in @poppublicsphere.bsky.social with my amazing co-author @plutscher.bsky.social !

📣 Read Prof Milli Lake & Prof Alexandra Hartman’s article:
“Institutions as Perpetrators: Power and Political Violence in Responses to Rape” in @poppublicsphere.bsky.social.

The article asks: how and why attempts to remedy sexual violence fail survivors so profoundly?
