In this conversation, we discussed how (beyond the horrible sexual abuse and trafficking) the Epstein files also brought to light the casual misogyny and sexism toward women, the 6 barriers outlined in her book, Glass Walls , that she used to analyze the files and the significance for women in the workplace, how misogyny enables a collective silence to protect men and devalue women, and what we can do to correct these injustices.
