“To every victim and survivor of sexual violence who reads this: I want you to know that you are not alone. I want you to know that no matter where you were or what you did before or after the fact, what happened to you is not your fault. Finally, and most importantly, I want you to know that there is more than one way to be brave. Even if you are not as vocal as I am, even if you didn’t report it or never told anyone about it, don’t think for a second that that means you are not strong or courageous…”
