Terri Why Didn't You

    • Documentary

This week on Why Didn't You, something a little different.
After our first two episodes, listeners (you!) have been curious about the personal experiences of creator & host Terri White. So, in this one-off episode, Terri tells her story - including an incident she's speaking about for the first time and the rape myths she's faced and/or that drive her potty. This ep. covers class, mental heath, assault and child abuse.
This is Terri's testimony. Next week, she'll be back to hearing yours.
