"He has protected them, taken care of them, worked with me & worked with their parents. He’s been amazing," Mary Lee Tracy, @USAGym's new elite dev coordinator, said of #LarryNassar in 2016.

More than 50 girls had already accused him of abuse at the time. huffingtonpost.com/entry/mary-lee…
"USA Gymnastics has appointed someone who, in my view, supported Nassar, victim-shamed survivors, & has shown no willingness to learn from the past." -- @Aly_Raisman
“At USAG sanctioned events and camps, at least one of her athletes was abused by Larry Nassar. She supported him even when it was very clear that she shouldn’t. This is maddening.” -- former gymnast and survivor @chels327
"Congress needs to act to protect our athletes." -- attorney for over 100 survivors @johnmanly

Everyone. Needs. To. Read. This.

More specifically, every man in my life needs to read this. vox.com/2018/9/10/1782…
"I am but half-woke, still reckoning with the instincts and perspectives my upbringing wrote into my code. But I think I can do a decent job explaining, for my more skeptical dude readers... the rudiments of #MeToo — just what it is women see that many men do not."
"It goes like this: Sexual discrimination, harassment, and abuse are everywhere. They are not isolated cases, not rare, and not confined to the powerful or famous. They constitute an ongoing, systemic crisis. #MeToo is meant to draw attention to that crisis...

Former @michiganstateu athletic director George Perles (and current trustee) reportedly covered up the accusations, according to a federal lawsuit filed Monday. huffingtonpost.com/entry/larry-na… #LarryNassar
This entire story is completely fucked: The survivor was 17 & a virgin at the time she says Nassar raped her. She later became pregnant and miscarried.
She later lost her field hockey scholarship & currently suffers from anxiety and depression, including a 1993 suicide attempt -- a year after she says Nassar raped her.

As you read DeVos' proposed Title IX regs remember: 3 MILLION college students will be sexually assaulted btwn Aug-Nov. Most will be 1st year women attending parties at upperclass men's off-campus housing. Under DeVos' rules, these women can't file complaints w/ their school.
87 percent of college students live off-campus. When DeVos excludes off-campus assault in Title IX regulations, she's excluding the majority of students & the majority of night life that exists on campuses.
"This is really just saying that ‘it doesn’t matter that you were assaulted three minutes off campus. You still have to share a classroom with your rapist,'" @Sage_Gaea told me.

This is the last place I ran alone & carefree. A thread on Mollie Tibbetts and running alone as a woman.
I didn’t always love running. It wasn’t until I got to college that I realized just how helpful it was for my mental health.
When I got depressed, instead of smoking a cigarette I would run (err, most of the time). I put my headphones in, spandex shorts & t-shirt on, and I would run circles in a small neighborhood off campus.
