(New York Magazine)
Thirty-five of Bill Cosby’s alleged sexual assault victims have appeared on today’s issue of New York Magazine. Have a look at all the women on the above cover photo.
Noreen Malone has written an essay about the 35 women for the feature, stating:
The group of women Cosby allegedly assaulted functions almost as a longitudinal study – both for how an individual woman, on her own, deals with such trauma over the decades and for how the culture at large has grappled with rape over the same time period. In the ’60s, when the first alleged assault by Cosby occurred, rape was considered to be something violent committed by a stranger … But among younger women, and particularly online, there is a strong sense now that speaking up is the only thing to do, that a woman claiming her own victimhood is more powerful than any other weapon in the fight against rape.
