Description

*TRIGGER WARNING: Sexual Violence*


Dr Connie Kerali was drugged and raped by a man that she was dating in the summer of 2015. She was silenced by shame for 3 years until she heard one woman courageously share her survivor story. A few days later, she reported what happened to her to the police.


In recognition of the impact one story can have, Speak Shame is a collection of stories that shame didn't want you to hear. Stories of hope, inspiration and becoming.
