The Monster We All Feed

Today atSupport for Special Needs:Excerpt:  We live in a society where rape culture isn ’t just a thing, but a gigantic thing. It’s a monster that we feed constantly, with our popular media and our societal privilege and an institutionalized misogyny that permeates our judicial systems and is now entrenched and protected at the highest levels of the executive. I wish I’d done mor e in the course of my life to fight that culture of rape and misogyny. I wish my commitment to fighting it had begun in my heart because I’m a human being and not because I’m the father of a daughter. Like the roots of my disability advocacy, it’s a shitty reason for me to care. As a privilege d white male in this country, I’m the problem. I should have been talking about this for decades. I have a lot of catching up to do; many of us do.
