On Grace Millane And The Cycles That Lead To Violence




After Work Drinks show

Summary: We released this week’s episode a day early because of the latest update in the tragic story behind Grace Millane’s death: that the 26-year-old man who murdered her in New Zealand on December 1st was known as ‘creepy’ years before this happened. Senseless, violent acts like this stem from an inherent sexism engrained over years and it’s important that we address the patterns of behaviour at the root of the cause - not just whenever an innocent young woman loses her life. We had intended to cover more topics in this episode but ended up dedicating our entire discussion to Grace. It’s our most emotional recording to date as we discuss the cycles that lead to violence and the disgusting everyday acts of sexism women are expected to put up with.
