NO HOLDING BACK

Sexual abuse and rape is not new. However, what is new is seeing an individual like Grace Tame, who has been serially raped, named as our Australian of the Year (AWW, March). This courageous young woman has given voice to so many others who are now coming forward to speak their truth, and she is emboldening yet more women to realise they are not to blame. Considering the events in Australia’s Parliament House over recent months, the choice of Grace, back in January, was almost divine insight. C. Jolliffe, Buderim, Qld
