It takes a great amount of courage to speak up against someone who has harmed you. More when its sexual assault,and even more still when the abuse was at the hands of a well-loved and prominent figure in their chosen field. Finding the tremendous amount of courage to tell your truth, only to occupy it reduced, or has to be disheartening and heartbreaking. It's a reminder that we live in a society that would rather protect abusers,particularly whether said abuser holds a higher value than those they are abusing.
