BEAUTY (SURNAME WITHHELD)- She was raped and raped and raped again, but then... (Full) | 19 March, 2018
This conversation thoroughly humbled me. It made me realize how deeply priviledged I am – as a man, as a person born to parents who took their jobs seriously, and as a person who has not faced traum of any kind. Beauty (not her real name) was raped by her father at 13, rejected by her mother at the same time, and then successively abused by a range of neighbours and strangers over a five-year period. She was a stripper before she was 18, and had to watch her child killed by the woman who held her hostage. Yet, Beauty is one of the most joyful people I ever met. Her heart is open, her spirit is un-polluted, and she has no hate for anyone. How is that even possible?
