Publisher's Synopsis
In the past few years, an astonishing number of sexual harassment victims have come forward with their stories, demanding consequences for their assailants and broad societal change. Each prominent allegation, however, has also set off a wave of questions - some posed in good faith, some distinctly not - about the rights of the accused. As a result, the national conversation about the rights of victims and alleged abusers has grown unduly polarised, inflamed by a public narrative that wrongly presents feminism and fair process as warring interests. 'Sexual Justice' is an intervention, pointing the way to common ground. As civil rights attorney Alexandra Brodsky makes clear, smart procedures for addressing allegations can let schools and workplaces promote both equality and fairness for all.
