To the One Who Raped Me

There are 525,600 minutes in a non-leap year. That makes 31,536,000 seconds in every year. So: 31,536,000 divided by 248,300 comes to one sexual assault every 127 seconds, or about one every two minutes. In 2006, Dustin Brookshire was raped by a former boyfriend. In the months that followed, he began writing as a means of coping with the psychological aftermath. The result is To the One Who Raped Me, a bold debut chapbook of taboo truths and the too-often unspoken that chronicles Dustin's journey from victim to survivor.Proudly published by Sibling Rivalry Press.
