Jospeh Fearon, lawyer at Preszler Injury Lawyers, talks about how those who have endured face stigma. He talks about one man in particular who was abused by a teacher as a teenager, and how the people in his community still minimize and even celebrate what happened to him.
His experience reveals the painful stigma many survivors still face, and the emotional toll that lasts for decades. This video challenges harmful cultural myths, shifts the focus away from survivors, and shines a light where it belongs, on the people and institutions responsible.
