Grateful to hear Jessy Edwards in convo w/ Matt Katz on The Brian Lehrer Show and A Daily Politics Podcast. The ASA was always about opening the civil system to those w/o prior access. The hundreds of survivors who have filed suit are extraordinary when they shouldn't have to be. gothamist.com/news/he-was-of…





This has happened, it’s been happening. Drew Dixon is a shining example. And there are so many Black women who have been sharing their stories and doing work to create safer and supportive spaces in the industry.



.Charlotte Bennett is a national treasure. When folks ask why survivors don’t come forward to share their stories or seek justice, point them to the actions of men like Andrew Cuomo. Yesterday we celebrated the verdict in France. We also need to acknowledge what’s happening here.





I was kidnapped and raped in 2017 by a Lyft driver. I reported to NYPD Special Victims almost immediately. They failed me, horrifically. I filed a lawsuit against NYPD in January 2019. I was one of the survivors who worked exhaustively for U.S. Department of Justice investigation. We deserve better.

So much love to Charlotte Bennett who can finally close another chapter in the trauma she’s endured, all because she demanded she be treated with dignity and respect. 🖤
