Re:wind to Re:process Track S2E14 Sisterhood Synergy (Expert Episode: Salamishah and Scheherazade Tillet)
Review this classic episode featuring Salamishah and Scheherazade Tillet on making black survivors visible.
Sisters can either be torn apart or drawn together due to sexual violence. Rutgers professor and Pulitzer Prize winner Salamishah Tillet and her sister, artist and curator Scheherazade Tillet, drew together after Salamishah shared her rape story. Together they co-founded "A Long Walk Home" to help Black women and girls share their own stories of shame, dysmorphia, injustice, recognizing trigger issues, survival, managing memories, finding community, and locating resources for recovering.
