Hello and welcome to series 8! First and foremost I would like to pre warn you that this series is going to be heavy. Dr Amani and I are going to be discussing sexual violence and focusing on how it manifests and impacts women of the global majority. This is not to discount the experience of white women, but more to acknowledge a whole globe of women who are rarely considered in this very important conversation.

Join us for the first episode where we speak on the definition of sexual violence, the historical context and the correlation between sexual violence and mental health issues.
