Host Caris Fox and guest Grace Wankelman introduce the We Can DU Better movement and the We Can Do Better campaign, offering a behind-the-scenes glance at the process of starting the movement and balancing life as a student and activist. This episode deep dives into subjects around sexual violence such as the words “me too” being both a heart-wrenching statement to hear, but also one that combats feelings of isolation and shame among survivors. This episode includes discussion on the role of the friend or family member in a survivor’s life, representation in media of healthy sexual relationships, rape jokes, intersectionality within the discussion of sexual violence, transformative justice, and the word “survivor”. Join us for a necessary conversation during Sexual Assault Awareness Month (April).
