| SUMMARY | |
| Summary | In this powerful and original book, Linda Martin Alcoff aims to correct the misleading language of public debate about rape and sexual violence by showing how complex our experiences of sexual violation can be. Although it is survivors who have galvanized movements like #MeToo, when their words enter the public arena they can be manipulated or interpreted in a way that damages their effectiveness. Rather than assuming that all experiences of sexual violence are universal, we need to be more sensitive to the local and personal contexts who is speaking and in what circumstances that affect how activists and survivors protests will be received and understood. |
