In Celebration of International SWAN Day. Please join Kylie Angell & SWAN Day co-founder Jan Lisa Huttner for Post-Screening Q&A.
In their compelling new documentary, IT HAPPENED HERE, director Lisa F. Jackson and producer Marjorie Schwartz Nielsen explore the issue of sexual assault on America’s college campuses by chronicling the personal testimonies of five survivors.
These brave young women describe surviving sexual assault only to be met with apathy, disbelief, blame and retaliation from the authorities – college administrators, local police departments and the courts. While trying to report the crime, while trying to get justice, they were ignored, belittled and shamed, while their attackers remained on campus with impunity.
Instead of hiding away in shame, these young women chose to speak out and find a way to force institutional change.
IT HAPPENED HERE – SUNDAY, MARCH 29
