We discuss insights gained through investigative reporting, the role of technology platforms and regulation failures, and seek to understand where our prayers and intentions may be best focused in our silent activism against the abuse that too many women are facing and continue to be traumatized by. Please note that this episode describes subject matter that may disturb some listeners. Intentions and prayers start at 22 minutes 25 seconds. Suggested Intention Focus for this week This week, as we reflect on the deeply concerning existence of Rape Academy and the mass abuse that this supports, we suggest holding as our main intention: We will that all women who have been or may be drugged, assaulted or abused for the sexual pleasure or profit of men are held in light and given the voice and support that they need. Please join us in holding this.
