Silence Doesn't Support Your Well-Being | My UofT Professor Continues to Get Away with Stalking Me Does anyone else hope that if they say nothing and do nothing, that problems might magically disappear? That was my hope. All to say, 4 years later and I've come to the realization that I was wrong. When it comes to matters of safety - silence is never the answer. It's never an easy decision to speak up and to speak out when you're already being subjected to violence. For those who have endured any level of physical, emotional, psychological, or any other form of abuse, there's a huge risk that comes with speaking up, when you have limited options to escape the people who seem dedicated to hurting you. As someone who has not only moved cross country (from Toronto to Vancouver Island) to escape violence, to then try and find amnesty living abroad, I'm more aware than most at how impossible it feels to escape someone who thinks they own you. I've finally come to the conclusion, that speaking up is the only logical answer. #uoft #rotmanschool #rotman #escapingviolence #stalking #abuse #rcmp #abuseofpower #mckinsey Any questions?
