Description

Jeremy is using film, animation, and photography to break the silence about child abuse.He is helping break the unspeakable. How does someone that was about to become the mechanical engineer designing aircraft and then supercars. He was going to work on a Formula One team. He worked at McLaren team. Things started to change, and he noticed more about his childhood. His story is not an outlier story. People don’t know why things in their life start to change. It is confusing for people that are not involved in trauma and child abuse. It takes about 20 years until they say something. He first spoke about it when he was 27 yrs old and his abuse happened between the ages of 8-10 years old. They said when something horrific happens when you are a child you have no chance or capacity to understand- you put it in a box until you can remember it. Then it opens and you start to be able to process the memories. Jeremy decided to change his purpose when an 80-year-old woman told him she never spoke about her trauma and abuse and held her back as speaking out was not possible and that she would go to the grave with the hurt. This is the moment he started to speak out.  He started speaking out to close friends and started researching it and discovered that their thousands of people in chat rooms discussing the same hurt. He started talking about his story.  This is not a story about violence. His message is to speak more about sex and the realisation that grooming and coercive control are built up over time and it is often by someone the child knows. It is slow and gradual process; the child feels like they are in a relationship.www.jeremyindika.comSupport the show
