'You cannot forget these people. You cannot forget us. You cannot forget people who have the courage.' –TaranaBurke MeToo
SM: So how do we use those types of tools and that type of system to heal and solve a crisis like this?I think there's no eloquent answer for this, and I have not heard, even amongst my peers and colleagues, the answer that makes me feel like that's it. The way that I think about this, and I‘ve spent a lot of time thinking about it, because I consider myself very much an abolitionist in a lot of ways around other issues.
So many ways that people experience sexual violence don’t rise to the level of crime. And so then what? You're just out of options? This is part of the re-education and resocialization that has to happen. If you harm somebody, there has to be recourse. You have to be accountable for the harm you cause. That accountabilityall the time, but there has to be a system of accountability.
SM: Absolutely. And it sounds a lot like just having integrity in the way that you go about these things. I am really interested in these gray areas. I think that a lot of people are grappling with it because a lot of sexual abuse may not be appropriate to bring to the police, so then what.
