Things such as catcalls and explicit song lyrics may seem harmless, but they contribute to an atmosphere where people, particularly women, are regarded as objects. This makes it easier for rapists to justify their actions to themselves. Readers are introduced to these and other crucial points about this important social issue and the rising level of awareness surrounding it. Relatable text, discussion questions, and informative fact boxes teach young adults what rape culture is and how they can fight it to make society safer for everyone. 650 0 $a Rape $z United States $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Sex crimes $z United States $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Sexual abuse victims $z United States $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Sexual ethics $z United States $v Juvenile literature. 941 $a 2 952 $l KJPF566 $d 20190824011154.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20180501010734.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=0629F5624D0511E89A6C172A97128E48 994 $a C0 $b JIUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
