Summary

We are honored to have two very special guests with us Sarah Ann Masse, and Rowena Chiu who both say they were victims of sexual assault by Harvey Weinstein. Sarah Ann and Rowena tell us their stories, and the aftermath of their assaults. They have each become fierce advocates for other survivors and are still trying to shed light on HW’s enablers responsible for allowing an environment of abuse to continue. You can watch Rowena’s story depicted in the brilliant Universal film “She Said” starring Carey Mulligan and Zoe Kazan, directed by Maria Schrader and written by Rebecca Lenkiewicz (who both should have been nominated for Oscars). Sarah Ann shares how she got the producers of the film to cast real survivors of HW. You won’t want to miss this. Please subscribe, share and leave us a 5 star review wherever you listen to your podcasts.


You can watch the trailer for “She Said” here. Please check it out on your streaming service. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i5pxUQecM3Y
