when they heard that pop singer riyadh that was assaulted by her boyfriend chris brown, we would ask what did she do to force him to hit her. we are able to write off sexual- harassment. still look at claims of sexual harassment and let the woman because that is what we are trained to do. we blame the victim because that is what credible people like police officers and news sources do. why would we not? another significant problem my generation faces is sexual- harassment is we are still not exactly sure what it is. i think this stems back to our attitudes about the feminist movement at large. feminism is no longer a fight against obvious articles. we want roh vs. wade, title and then, the list goes on. it is not about getting rights, it is about preserving them. this is where it becomes complicated for us to be -- to interrogate our values into our daily lives. we may be passionate about fighting injustice is, we may theoretically be able to identify what is acceptable or not, we find it difficult to recognize the same injustices we speak against within the context of our own lives.

the first thing i want to say about chris brown that i think is imperative to say is that he is a young man in crisis. he has been a young man in crisis for a long time. he is the child of a mother who was severely abused by her live- in boyfriend. he grew up in an environment with a batterer. in the early parts of his career, it was one of the things that he shared openly. he talked about the way it had shaped them as it related to women and his sensitivity to women and an appreciation of his mother. and so if we understand that history, there is a larger question called, what went wrong.? ? where did he go from someone who was dominated by the shadow of that abuse to someone who embodied that abuse? here is where it gets challenging. in our dynamic, the automatic reaction is to vilify and victimized. right? somewhere in here, we have to lean into the dynamics of what was occurring with both of them. there is a way that i do feel rihanna was surrounded that supported her ability to look. she talked about the moment when she went back and they were trying to attempt to reconcile. she th
