sexual violence is a key tool in creating and maintaining economic inequality. victims often pay an invisible "rape tax" for the rest of their lives.

the overrepresentation of rich survivors in public discourse keeps society from understanding how financially devastating gendered violence is on a mass scale. this is a case where "representation matters" actually works lol

As I go into the final year of my doctorate I am more motivated than ever to make sure that Black women are given a voice via my research. It's the final push and I will put everything I can into this project
