Showing titles in Sexual Abuse & Harassment

Charmaine Maeer says she was beaten and repeatedly raped during just 10 days service as a soldier at Whittington Barracks in Lichfield, Staffordshire, England. This audiobook was first published in paperback format in 2008, and although a very harrowing and deserved story, it never received the attention it deserved due to the nature of the claims made by Charmaine Mary Nona Maeer.

On August 6, 1993, twenty-year-old Natasha Alexenko was assaulted at gunpoint. After nearly a decade, her backlogged rape kit was finally tested and her rapist, who roamed free for ten years, was brought to justice. On the day he was sentenced, Alexenko vowed that she would no longer be a statistic and would do whatever she could to help police on behalf of other rape victims. In 2011, she founded Natasha’s Justice Project (NJP), a nonprofit committed to ending the rape-kit backlog. This unflinching memoir chronicles her journey from trauma to triumph.

Che cosa significa esattamente "fare mobbing"? È un attacco ai diritti civili, ma connaturato al lavoro organizzato; è una minaccia al buon funzionamento delle organizzazioni, ma ci sono stili di gestione che lo rendono più probabile; è individuale nelle conseguenze ma è collettivo nei meccanismi che lo innescano. Per chi ha potere è più facile esercitarlo ma le false accuse di mobbing sono a loro volta una potente arma di mobbing.

The Japanese army's brutal occupation of the city of Nanking during the 1937 Sino-Japanese War is known, for good reason, as the rape of Nanking. As they slaughtered an estimated 300,000 people, the invading soldiers raped more than 20,000 women - some estimates run as high as 80,000. Hua-ling Hu presents here the amazing untold story of the American missionary Minnie Vautrin, whose unswerving defiance of the Japanese protected 10,000 Chinese women and children.

In her debut memoir, Controlled, Neesha Arter shares the year of her life that followed a harrowing crime.

While patriarchy and misogyny are problems everywhere, they take on a particularly pernicious form in Christian churches, where those with power have been insisting, since many decades before #MeToo, that this sexually dysfunctional environment is, in fact, exactly how God wants it to be. #ChurchToo turns over the rocks of the church's sexual dysfunction, revealing just what makes sexualized violence in religious contexts both ubiquitous and uniquely traumatizing.
