Nicole (which is not her real name) was a freshman, a virgin and a long way from her Midwestern home.

Although she had heard stories of sexual assault on campus, she never thought its reach would extend to her.
Roy Moore. Al Franken. John Conyers. Bill Clinton. Harvey Weinstein. Bill O’Reilly. The list goes on.

Harvey Weinstein. Roy Moore. Louis C.K. Sen. Al Franken. Kevin Spacey. President Donald Trump. That’s just off the top of my head.

Harvey Weinstein’s actions are well-known to many within his company and others in the industry. Over the years, a few women have spoken out who were affected, but that number could climb as more speak out. Quentin Tarantino, for example, has taken responsibility for knowing about what the Hollywood mogul was doing but not taking action. Weinstein’s actions may seem like a narrow story that only applies to Hollywood, but it does have broader implications.
By now, everyone has read about the accusations surrounding Hollywood film mogul Harvey Weinstein. His list of accusers has grown significantly over the last week, as dozens of women have now come out and accused him of sexual assault or rape.
We live in a society where sexual assault and abuse are not only too common but pretty much expected. We live in a society where those with power feel entitled to take what they assume they deserve. We live in a society where women are exploited. Worst of all, we live in a society that is allowing all of this to happen. Again. And again. And again.
