Oct 2018

It took a lot of years and I'm ok, but I cry for all the women that are still in pain...

I think my pragmatism and often stoicism comes from a deep place where my memories linger... I have used my practical, academic and cognitive self to overcome many things (I related so well to Dr. Ford)… not only the number of sexual assaults/harassment towards me from boys/men but I had no one in my life to go to... I want to encourage everyone to find someone to share with

Rep Eric Swalwell says it best!
