Content Warning: Sexual Assault and Racial Violence

Frances Thompson was a formerly enslaved, disabled, trans Black woman who survived one of the deadliest racial massacres in American history. She was brave enough to testify in front of Congress... but instead of celebrating her bravery, the very system that claimed to value justice targeted her with humiliation and cruelty.

Her story isn't pleasant, but it's important. Please listen with care.

If you or someone you care about has been the victim of a sexual assault, you can reach out to the National Sexual Assault Hotline at 1-800-656-4673 or RAINN's Website.
