The Women's Studies Program presents events focusing on Domestic Violence Awareness month during the Week Without Violence.
- October 18 - Rape Myths on Trial: Naming the Unnamed Conspirator | noon - 1:20 p.m. | TTU Library TLPDC 153
You are welcome to bring your lunch
In this provocative presentation, Anne Munch, a career prosecutor and advocate for victims of gender violence, examines how cultural attitudes shape the outcomes of rape and sexual assault cases. Drawing on years of experience prosecuting sex crimes, Munch shows how rape cases often turn on the involvement of an "unnamed conspirator" -- the complex of myths and stories we tell ourselves as a culture about sex, gender, power, and responsibility.
