What we talk about when we talk about rape/sohaila abdulali

Sohaila Abdulali was gang-raped as a teenager in Bombay.

Indignant at the silence on the issue in India, she wrote an article for a womans magazine questioning how we perceive rape and rape victims.

Thirty years later her story went viral.

Drawing on her own experience, her work with survivors as the head of a rape crisis centre in Boston, her research, and three decades of grappling with the issue personally and professionally, What We Talk About When We Talk About Rape is about changing the conversation around rape culture, questioning our assumptions, and deciding how we want to raise the next generation.
