    How Clergy Abuse Survivors Created A Movement Against Sexual Violence with Tim Lennon

    Andrea Heinz speaks with Tim Lennon, a clergy abuse survivor, author of Stand Up Speak Up, and a longtime leader within SNAP (Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests). Together, they explore how patterns of institutional cover-up, denial, and protection of perpetrators within the Church echo the experiences of children and adults harmed in the commercial sexual exploitation industry, and how survivors across different forms of violence can organize, find solidarity, and push for change.  Links Tim Lennon’s website: standupspeakup.org  Tim Lennon’s book “Stand Up, Speak Up: How Survivors Created A Movement To End Sexual Violence”: https://standupspeakup.org/stand-up-speak-up-the-book/  Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests: snapnetwork.org Resources for survivors: snapnetwork.org/resources  Bishop Accountability: bishopaccountability.org  Follow us: Facebook: ⁠@RedLightExposé⁠ ⁠Instagram: @RLE.podcast TikTok: ⁠@redlightexpose⁠ Twitter: ⁠@RedLightExpose YouTube: @RedLightExpose Disclaimer: All the information provided through Red Light Exposé is published in good faith and solely for general information and educational purposes.
