Credible: Why We Doubt Accusers and Protect Abusers

Kate talks with Deborah Tuerkheimer about her recent book, Credible: Why We Doubt Accusers and Protect Abusers. A former prosecutor and leading authority on sexual violence, Deb's book examines why we are primed to disbelieve allegations of sexual abuse--and how we can transform a culture and a legal system structured to dismiss accusers.

This episode contains discussions of sexual violence. Please use discretion and take care of yourselves.
