Episode What the ‘Cornell 7’ tells us about male silence, violence and misogyny
News of an alleged rape involving seven men at an elite university – a case being called the ‘Cornell 7’ – is reverberating across the US.
For many people, the case – and the way the men and the institutions involved responded at the time – echoes high profile incidents here in Australia.
So what responsibilities are our institutions failing to live up to? And what should they be doing differently?
Today, advocate Tarang Chawla on the so-called Cornell 7, and what the case tells us about misogyny at home.
And a warning – while we try not to get too graphic, this episode does cover sexual assault.
