Description
Know My Name is a profoundly moving memoir that exposes a patriarchal culture biased to protect perpetrators and a criminal justice system designed to fail the most vulnerable. Chanel Miller's story is one of pain, resilience, and humour, as she recounts her experience of being sexually assaulted on Stanford's campus and the subsequent fight for justice.
The book shines with the courage required to move through suffering and live a full and beautiful life. Miller's words are purposeful and powerful, making this a searing and beautiful read. Her story has sparked international outrage and action, and it will appeal to readers hope in anyone who reads it.
This memoir is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in feminism, personal stories of survival, and the fight for justice. It is a testament to the strength and resilience of the human spirit, and a reminder that the voices of the vulnerable must be heard.
