Some 71 percent of women who have been sexually harassed don’t report it, a 2015 survey found.
“Once they understand that we have these hidden biases, they can confront them.”

“If you don’t create advocacy among men, and awareness, the problem will never go away,”
“Men of quality are not threatened by women of equality.”
