How the Threat of Sexual Violence in Electoral Politics is Both Racist & Sexist: A Conversation with Dr. Nicole Bedera

Listen Later

Sociologist, and sexual violence researcher, Dr. Nicole Bedera, discusses her new book, On the Wrong Side: How Universities Protect Perpetrators and Betray Survivors of Sexual Violence. The book is a must-read, and Dr. Bedera's research often spills over into conversations on social media — like a recent thread in which she unpacks how the implicit thread of sexual violence, has seeped into political rhetoric — and it's employed in a way that's both racist, and sexist.

This episode was made possible with a grant from the MacArthur Foundation through URL Media.
