let me explain what have been happening in Tunisia for the past 24 hours: 1/8
September 19th, a 15 year-old girl got off school early. Her friend then asked her if she wanted to go for a coffee. The girl then called her mother, asked for permission and her mom said yes+
I don’t care if that girl snorted coke with one nostril, meth with the other, injected heroin, ate a mushroom, smoked a joint, and did a keg stand booty butt naked in front of the entire frat house—she did not deserve to be assaulted.
the president of Columbia at the time (Lee Bollinger) refused to shake her hand at graduation. his name is mentioned twice in the epstein files. this is the reality of ivy league institutions.
They tried to bury her and she continually clawed her way to the surface despite Cornell shoveling dirt on top of her.
I hope people understand how impossibly difficult it is to advocate for yourself as a victim and how insanely resilient you have to be to even file.
I think every female student at Cornell should file a class action suit for dereliction of duty to provide a safe and protected learning environment.
Honestly, it could be deemed as malicious intent to harm - letting 7 rapists roam free on campus was absolutely intentional.
I feel intense sadness over the Cornell rape situation especially because she did everything right. She reported it quickly and the campus police didn’t care, the campus admins didn’t care, she gave names and times and faces and they didn’t care
“He’s got a promising future, we don’t want one night to ruin his life”
I do. I think that the day he raped someone his life should be over as he knows it and he should never know peace again. His future should be ruined.
Why the fuck would anyone want a rapist as a doctor?
yes the Cornell rape incident is horrible, but a more overlooked sinister detail is that they advertised it in a group chat and NONE of the guys reported it or stopped them. Men enable men.
Hey, so rape is actually always 100% the rapists fault. There is no level of shared responsibility. This is true. Always. Thank you for coming to my talk.
so much grief on behalf of women and girls - the price of being committed to the betterment of our shared condition is a shared grief. may each of us get the justice we deserve
