She also shares some of the things she's done that have helped her process her pain and trauma, and that continue to promote her healing."I often think of it as as sort of a choir; the more that you speak up, and raise your voice others can join with you and before you know it, you all are singing this incredible tune that can change hearts and minds." - A.To learn more about I Will Not Be Quiet: https://www.iwnbq.com/To read her essay in Elle: https://www.elle.com/culture/a37501793/rape-pregnancy-texas-abortion-law/TW: This episode contains material of a sexual nature, including rape and abuse.
