More victim crap. WS likes Trayvon and black women who've been raped, as she can associate herself with other "victims".

“You know the world is going crazy when the best rapper is a white guy, the best golfer is a black guy, the tallest guy in the NBA is Chinese, the Swiss hold the America's Cup, France is accusing the U.S. of arrogance, Germany doesn't want to go to war, and the three most powerful men in America are named "Bush", "Dick", and "Colin."

More stories related to the work WS does. The subject is of interest to women.
That is incorrect. there was NEVER a US law making rape of any kind legal. It would be correct to say that in the age of slavery blacks were not protected by the laws to the same extent that whites are , but there was NEVER a law allowing the rape of blacks.
A similar case is that at one time in this country marital rape wasn't illegal. That doesn't mean there was a law encouraging or allowing marital rape, just that there was no law against it.

Even when WS has a valid point she has to be wrong. It IS a valid point that too many rapes go unreported, and if she wants to start a thread about that fine; but why throw skin color into the equation? Why reference things from 150 years ago as if some black woman today after being raped thinks "oh lawdy lawdy I besta not report mastah or i gets a whuppin."
There are MANY reasons why women today don't report rapes, and I'd bet NONE of them have to do with skin color.
It's difficult for rape victims to come forward, even though they know that there are people who would understand and listen to them. Male/Female, Black/White, it doesn't matter, rape is hard to discuss. The person feels shame that they weren't able to fight off their attackers, or that maybe they orgasmed during it. At the very least, there is the sheer violation of it, and in situations where the person did orgasm, they can add that their own body betrayed them, the feeling that there is something wrong, or broken, in them that they would "like" something like that.
Unfortunately, as humans, we most usually hide our serious hurts from others, despite being social animals.

You'd probably lose that bet:
But the question remains as to how internal "black" issues can ever be solved if racism is always used as an obstacle to solving the problem?Through the filmmaking process, she discovered that racism played a significant role in survivors’ reactions to rape. “There was a level of trust with perpetrators because (as in the majority of all rape cases, regardless of race/ethnicity), the women I interviewed were raped by acquaintances. They would ask, ‘How do I come forward?’ because they were advocating against racism in their communities and didn’t want to send another Black man to jail. We are trained as women not to betray the Black race.”

What does a sonogram have to do with REAL rape, WS?
