"Campus Sex, Campus Security was written in a fever: the book was published in 2015, prior to #metoo and the transformation in journalism which grew around this shift in discourse about harassment. In this talk, I will share the process of writing this book, and shifts in my own thinking as I've centered more and more of my work around harassment and its ecologies."
