Explains how the stories we tell about sexual assault serve to reinforce rape culture, privileging criminal punishment over social justice and community-based responses. Examining a range of media, Leland Spencer demonstrates how representations shore up the carceral state, perpetuate rape myths, blame victims, and excuse those who harm.
