Rape, Is Rape, Is Rape, Is Rape; No Means No!
Author: Renee Drummond-Brown
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 76
Book Description
Rape, Is Rape, Is Rape, Is Rape; No Means No, by Reneé Drummond-Brown, sheds light on sexual intercourse carried out forcibly, and/or with a person incapable of granting permission thus making the subject of rape extremely touchy, and victims left-torn with guilt and shame. This book captures physical and psychological torment at the highest-level bringing awareness to the blind who want to maintain the status quo by not challenging the broke system. Drummond-Brown's poetry book claps back on the status quo without mincing words. The author is very vocal and direct in showing the unlawful sex acts brilliantly depicted in poetic form coupled with symbolic pictorial illustrations that tell the story from the rape victim's perspective, who oftentimes is silent and uncomfortable in expressing such ugliness committed on their vulnerable bodies. The book aims to help survivors of sexual assault and human trafficking by placing accountability and blame where it belongs rather than silencing innocent victims of this outrageous violation carried out by men, women, and yes, even cops, teachers, and priest who are often portrayed as "the good guys."
