Not That Bad w/ Kara Lyne Szabadi

CONTENT WARNING: Blunt conversation about rape, sexual assault, domestic violence.
 
This week we’re joined by Kara Lyne Szabadi to delve into Not That Bad: Dispatches from Rape Culture, a collection of essays edited by our favorite Roxane Gay. We try to wrap our minds around rape culture- from our personal experiences on college campuses, at work and in dating to the cultural watershed moments of the 2016 election and #metoo movement. We dive into the notion that it's not just the elephant in the room, but the room itself. Why have we internalized the belief that the global epidemic of sexual violence is “not that bad?” What’s “bad enough?” Why are we SO MAD?
