  • Episode 78 | NYMBC: Know My Name by Chanel Miller

    Not Your Mom's Book Club is here again! This week, the Woman Beings review the book, Know My Name by Chanel Miller. Miller bravely and eloquently wrote about her life after being sexually assaulted by Brock Turner on Stanford University campus. She details the intricate and complex process of working through trauma and the painful reality victims face in the criminal justice system. Most importantly, she emphatically articulates the value of her own personhood - not just a victim, not Emily Doe, not a drunk girl at a party - a human.
