“To all the survivors out there, don't let anyone rewrite your story. Your truth does matter. You matter. And you are not alone.”

It’s Faith Evans not Faith Hill
So proud of my fellow greater Bostonian Aly. A true champion.
The bull cracked me up.
Aly Raisman and her sister survivors are strength and courage personified. I am in awe of them. Their testimonies at trial brought me to tears. Their bravery shines.
I am so proud of all those women have accomplished. It took me more than two decades to finally speak out about my abuse and no one has ever been held accountable. The bravery and courage these young women have shown will hopefully be a light for more young women (and men, cause let’s not kid ourselves that they arent abused, too) to come forward and seek soke kind of justice. I just hate knowing that there are so many young people out there who are terrified of speaking out.
I’m so sorry no one has been held accountable for your abuse, but thank you for sharing what happened to you. You’re helping people just by speaking out. Xo
Amazing ladies, so courageous. I wish them peace and happiness.

Aly and her peers have saved countless others from suffering and they deserve all the accolades in the world.
JLaw as Mariia Butina?
Anna Paquin looks more like Butina. In any event, that movie would have to get a strong R rating or maybe an NC-17.
I’m crying again for the second time today. What does it take for women to be believed, for children to be protected? The damage that man did, the damage ICE is doing to children of refugees, and the tremendous power and fortitude it takes to come through these assaults to the other side, is unfathomable. I wish for the same strength, and ultimately peace, for all survivors. But mostly I wish for human beings to feel they belong in the world they walk in, and to strive to do no harm.
