What’s the secret to lasting friendships? How does queer community show up through the ebbs and flows of life? And what’s the REAL story behind the “YMCA” song? In the first episode of Silver Linings, The Old Gays dive into an essential part of queer life: chosen family. They discuss the vital love, support, and sense of belonging that community provides, especially during life's toughest moments. They open up about what “queer” means to them, how chosen family has impacted their lives, and how to maintain close bonds over time–including their love for each other! “We’ve come a long way, baby.” Family isn’t just what you’re born with; it’s the people who show up, shape you, and stick around.

Surviving Justice: Realities of Reporting Rape explicit

Beranda serial•Feed

Why report rape through a criminal procedure when there's a 95% chance that the rapist will never even be arrested, and less than a 1% chance than the rapist will be convicted? Why report rape when your rapist will hire a P.I. to intimidate and harass you through the process? Why report rape when your detective will refer to a strangulation mark on your neck as a hickey? Why report rape when you'll be met with a culture of hostility and disbelief, and be blamed at every turn for what someone else did to you?--------------------------------------------------This podcast walks listeners through the realities of reporting rape, from start to finish throughout the process: the moment of the crime itself, the decision to report or not, the SANE exam, the initial patrol contact, the interviews with a detective, the subsequent investigation or lack thereof, the nearly inevitable declination of bringing charges forward, and the reasons why the survivor is often left further victimized by the system while the rapist walks free.--------------------------------------------------Hear from survivors, civil attorneys, prosecutors, detectives both retired and not, national organizations dedicated to ending sexual violence, victim advocates, psychologists and more to gain an understanding of why the system doesn't work, what's being done to address it, and what can be done to best support survivors of sexual assault.Go to SurvivingJustice.org to share your story.

Let's do a rape trial without using or defining the word "rape"! Sounds fair, right? Aarefah and her sister, Sayedah, are back for episode 2 of Aarefah's reporting and legal system experience. Clearly, it was amazing! Nothing sets up a fair and unbiased trial like a "neutral" detective testifying against you, no use of the word "rape" even though that was the offense, and being threatened with jail by using the words "Me Too"... and 3 separate tries. Love that "justice" system. Sign Aarefah's petition and join the cause. Support the show…

While this all-too-familiar story is maddening and infuriating at every step, the sisters' persistence and courage while crossing every imaginable hurdle is wholly inspiring. Support the show…

*Not a normal episode.* This is an uncertain time for everyone, but for survivors of sexual violence in the middle of their cases or in the middle of their healing, the world coming to a halt and being self-isolated can bring up all kinds of feelings. It can exacerbate depression, anxiety, etc, it may bring on unexpected feelings, the pause may bring back troubling thoughts or memories without the constant distraction of every day society, or being able to take a breather from the machine of life may feel like a helpful time to rest and heal. This episode speaks to all of these feelings and that they’re all okay, valid, and normal. No sense in feeling shame over things/feelings we can’t control. Let’s be here for each other during this unprecedented time. Stay healthy, stay connected to yourself and others, and be well. Support the show…

The backlog is a decades-long police failure that they are now unjustly taking credit for fixing. DNA only counts when it is tied to other DNA found in CODIS after years of not arresting rapists, apparently. Victims voices are never enough unless its a 12:1 victim to rapist ratio. Learn about how the backlog harms cases, victims, and keeps communities vulnerable and unsafe. You can learn more at Endthebacklog.org and the documentary "I Am Evidence", from where some of the facts and examples used throughout can be found.
