Healing is a complicated journey. It often involves navigating through pain, confusion, and resilience. For many survivors of sexual assault, overcoming trauma is made even tougher by a world that may be hostile and unyielding. This is a powerful narrative of courage—one woman’s fight against self-harm and victim blaming.Honey Badger is a true survivor. She was raped while serving in the United States Navy. Instead of finding the support she urgently needed, she faced retaliation, victim blaming, and emotional abuse for reporting her assault. Her story raises important questions about how military institutions handle sexual assault and the treatment of survivors.
