Download or read book The Blaming and Shaming of Defenseless Victims in America s Rape Culture written by Lisa R. Smith and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2022-04-27 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every sixty-eight seconds an American is sexually assaulted. Lisa Smith writes in light of this startling statistic and against the backdrop of the blaming and shaming of countless victims to ask one important question: why does America’s rape culture continue to exist? The Blaming and Shaming of Defenseless Victims in America's Rape Culture explores the ways collective memory, religion, and sexist beliefs are used to silence survivors and protect the powerful. The author delves into how justice is denied in sexual assault cases—rape kits untested by law enforcement agencies, information suppression through non-disclosure agreements, and denial and inaction by organizations, universities, corporations, and people all contribute to undetected rapists in our society. Despite these discouraging happenings, the #MeToo movement proved that legions of survivors of sexual violence can use their voice to fight back. Oral and historical narratives are included to encourage others to share their stories and promote social accountability. Through insightful research and analysis, the author offers a much-needed viewpoint on a vital and timely issue—why and how American society is perpetuating and protecting a dangerous culture of sexual violence, and even more importantly, how to fight back.

Download or read book The Culture of Death The Assault on Medical Ethics in America Large Print 16pt written by Wesley J. Smith and published by ReadHowYouWant.com. This book was released on 2010-10-06 with total page 474 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When his teenaged son Christopher, brain-damaged in an auto accident, developed a 106-degree fever following weeks of unconsciousness, John Campbell asked the attending physician for help. The doctor refused. Why bother? The boy's life was effectively over. Campbell refused to accept this verdict. He demanded treatment and threatened legal action. The doctor finally relented. With treatment, Christopher's temperature subsided almost immediately. Soon afterwards he regained consciousness and today he is learning to walk again. This story is one of many Wesley Smith recounts in his groundbreaking new book, The Culture of Death. Smith believes that American medicine ''is changing from a system based on the sanctity of human life into a starkly utilitarian model in which the medically defenseless are seen as having not just a 'right' but a 'duty' to die.'' Going behind the current scenes of our health care system, he shows how doctors withdraw desired care based on Futile Care Theory rather than provide it as required by the Hippocratic Oath. And how ''bioethicists'' influence policy by considering questions such as whether organs may be harvested from the terminally ill and disabled. This is a passionate, yet coolly reasoned book about the current crisis in medical ethics by an author who has made ''the new thanatology'' his consuming interest.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Man in the Open The characters wish me to tell you that they are all Imaginary Persons, and therefore very sensitive. The persons of a drama are protected by footlights, by the stage doorkeeper, not to mention grease paint and scalps by an eminent artiste; but the characters in a novel are thrust defenseless into a rude world, with many reporters about. In a page fright, worse even than stage fright, their only comfort is that absence of body which is their alternative to your great gift, presence of mind. So they make their bow under assumed names. There we come to the point. The proper names were all dealt out to worldly grasping persons, and not one was left unclaimed. The name department is like a cloak-room when the guests have departed, a train from which all passengers have alighted, an office on Christ mas day. Can you blame the characters in fiction who come after you, if they assume the noblest names, such as Smith, and try to be worthy of their borrowedplumes? Surely you would not have them wear a numeral such as the number of your house, or tele phone. The chances are that they give you no offense. Sup pose that gentlemen named Jesse Smith number one in each million of English-speaking people, there would be one hundred in North America, half of them adults, with a moiety in wedlock, and, of these twenty five, a hundredth part may be stockmen, of whom say one per cent. Have a flaw in their Claim to wedlock. To this residuum, the 0025 part of a perfect gentle man, whom he has not the honor to know personally, our Mr. Smith tenders profound apologies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Weatherbeaten Man: A Tale of American Patriotism Worm-rail fences enclosed a dusty highway extend ing as far east as the eye could see. The road crossed Cold Creek on an old brown bridge, framed of hewn timbers and covered with boards riven out of oak. On either side of this bridge the banks of Cold Creek were studded with willows. On the west bank, and north of the bridge, hidden in foliage, was a small house roughly made but not intended to be rustic, within which the earth gave birth to constant waters of a great spring whose sweetness came forthwith into the service of man. A trench, bedded and walled with boulders, confined the waters for a depth of six inches, some four feet in width and thrice as long.
