DESCRIPTION:Despite the current survivor-affirming awareness around sexual violence, 
 child sexual abuse, most notably when it’s a family member or friend, is 
 still a very taboo topic. There are approximately 42 million child sexual 
 abuse survivors in the U.S. and millions of bystanders who look the other 
 way as the abuse occurs and cover for the harm-doers with no 
 accountability. Documentary filmmaker and survivor of child sexual abuse 
 and adult rape, Aishah Shahidah Simmons invites diasporic Black people to 
 join her in transformative storytelling that envisions a world that ends 
 child sexual abuse without relying on the criminal justice system. Love 
 WITH Accountability features compelling writings by child sexual abuse 
 survivors, advocates, and Simmons’s mother, who underscores the 
 detrimental impact of parents/caregivers not believing their children when 
 they disclose their sexual abuse. This collection explores disrupting the 
 inhumane epidemic of child sexual abuse, humanely.\n\n"With this brave and 
 healing anthology of truth-telling about sexual abuse within Black 
 families, Aishah Shahidah Simmons sets an example for all families. If we 
 could all raise just one generation of children without violence or the 
 threat of violence, who knows what might be possible?" —Gloria 
 Steinem\n\nThese co-panelists (in alphabetical order) will join Simmons: 
 Qui Alexander, Rosa Cabrera, Cecelia Falls, Thea Matthews, Loretta Ross and 
 Gwendolyn Zoharah Simmons.\n\nNo admission charge.\n
