SHOUT by Laurie Halse Anderson Pdf

A New York Times bestseller and one of 2019's best-reviewed books, a poetic memoir and call to action from the award-winning author of Speak, Laurie Halse Anderson! Bestselling author Laurie Halse Anderson is known for the unflinching way she writes about, and advocates for, survivors of sexual assault. Now, inspired by her fans and enraged by how little in our culture has changed since her groundbreaking novel Speak was first published twenty years ago, she has written a poetry memoir that is as vulnerable as it is rallying, as timely as it is timeless. In free verse, Anderson shares reflections, rants, and calls to action woven between deeply personal stories from her life that she's never written about before. Described as "powerful," "captivating," and "essential" in the nine starred reviews it's received, this must-read memoir is being hailed as one of 2019's best books for teens and adults. A denouncement of our society's failures and a love letter to all the people with the courage to say #MeToo and #TimesUp, whether aloud, online, or only in their own hearts, SHOUT speaks truth to power in a loud, clear voice-- and once you hear it, it is impossible to ignore.

Please Stop Laughing at Me by Jodee Blanco Pdf

"In this timely update of the seminal classic, author and activist Jodee Blanco reveals how she simply set out to share her story-and ended up igniting a grassroots movement in the nation's schools. The first survivor of school bullying to look back on those experiences as an adult, Jodee brings you up to speed on her life and work since the book's initial release with a new chapter, all-new Letter to My Readers, and Reader's Guide. She also offers the latest information on digital and cyberbullying, the Adult Survivor of Peer Abuse, her in-school antibullying program, INJJA (It's NOT Just Joking Around!), and provides discussion questions for schools. While other children were daydreaming about dances, first kisses, and college, Jodee Blanco was trying to figure out how to go from homeroom to study hall without being taunted or spit upon as she walked through the halls. This powerful, unforgettable memoir chronicles how one child was shunned-and even physically abused-by her classmates from elementary school through high school. It is an unflinching look at what it means to be the outcast, how even the most loving parents can get it all wrong, why schools are often unable to prevent disaster, and how bullying has been misunderstood and mishandled by the mental health community"--

In Spite of You by Sarah Louise Rosmond Pdf

20% of all sales from this title is donated to Nexus Institute, in Northern Ireland. This charity help to support survivors of sexual trauma. It took me an awfully long time to speak out about my abusive childhood, whether it was down to the fear instilled into me throughout years of threats and manipulations, or the fear of being on my own, I had been silenced for the best part of my life. When I first told my story, I felt the need to protect everyone involved, including my abusive family. To save myself any hassle I decided to change names and places and it helped for a while, that was until my twisted aunt shone the spotlight on our whole family. By now the can of worms was completely and I felt backed into a corner. It was at this point, I felt like I needed to stand up for myself once and for all. I needed to protect myself, after all my so-called family never did. Pressing charges on my father was an emotional roller coaster and one of the hardest times in my life, and although I was completely alone, I felt the supported from every single survivor that had crossed my path, whether they were online connections or survivors I have met in person, I was doing it for every one of them, as much as I was doing it for myself. I found that over the years many survivors hadn't the strength to speak out, let alone stand up to their abusers in court. You see, abuse can do that to you, break you down so you doubt yourself and your own ability, but we are a lot stronger than we give ourselves credit for. So, for me I was gaining justice, not just for myself, but for every single abuse survivor out there too. Abuse happens in all shapes and sizes and can affect you regardless of age or gender. You are not any of the disheartening words you have been told, nor are you the circumstances they placed you in and most of all, you are not a victim! You are a survivor and a mighty one at that!I may never meet you, but know I am proud of each and every one of you. We all have a story inside us, and we all experience life differently, this is what makes us so interesting.Lots of love Sarah xo

I Have the Right To by Chessy Prout,Jenn Abelson Pdf

“A bold, new voice.” —People “A nuanced addition to the #MeToo conversation.” —Vice A young survivor tells her searing, visceral story of sexual assault, justice, and healing in this gutwrenching memoir. The numbers are staggering: nearly one in five girls ages fourteen to seventeen have been the victim of a sexual assault or attempted sexual assault. This is the true story of one of those girls. In 2014, Chessy Prout was a freshman at St. Paul’s School, a prestigious boarding school in New Hampshire, when a senior boy sexually assaulted her as part of a ritualized game of conquest. Chessy bravely reported her assault to the police and testified against her attacker in court. Then, in the face of unexpected backlash from her once-trusted school community, she shed her anonymity to help other survivors find their voice. This memoir is more than an account of a horrific event. It takes a magnifying glass to the institutions that turn a blind eye to such behavior and a society that blames victims rather than perpetrators. Chessy’s story offers real, powerful solutions to upend rape culture as we know it today. Prepare to be inspired by this remarkable young woman and her story of survival, advocacy, and hope in the face of unspeakable trauma.
