In brief: Trigger Warning: sexual violence and trauma.
I am super excited to bring you back to back weeks of extended conversations with badass women. This episode features the amazing Kamilah Willingham, co-founder of Survivors Eradicating Rape Culture (among her many accomplishments) which launched the #JustSaySorry campaign with Wagatwe Wanjuki lighting a Tufts University memento on fire followed by Kamilah lighting Harvard Law School gear on fire as they demand the institutions that failed them apologize.
