excerpts from anne’s article after her classmate is sexually assaulted
the most powerful weapon in the hands of the oppressor is the mind of the oppressed
-Steve Biko
"Mood" by Polly Nor
and there it is
don’t let crusty old white men dictate to you otherwise
josie responding to billy’s continued manipulation and self-entitlement with “i don’t want anything from you, least of all redemption,” is honestly one of the rawest lines in this show and that’s saying something, and one of the most self-empowering things i’ve witnessed
should she have to go through this and empower herself in such ways? no. but it’s so easy for abuse and abusers to win, and josie was wronged and she’s saying she’s giving him nothing, the end. he doesn’t get the glory of her redemption, he doesn’t get her feelings, he doesn’t get her. he’s a piece of shit and all he’s done is what he is and gets, the end. and that’s EXACTLY what anyone’s reaction should be, to give abusers NOTHING but their own flagrant reminder that’s what they are
anne says we own ourselves and are nobody else’s, and we are worthy of self-respect and love from ourselves and others. josie says fuck off if you disagree. DAMN STRAIGHT
