This book oﬀers us that: the juxtaposition of being visible and still being safe, the cariño of women speaking directly to us, not at us. Each page is anaﬃrmation: the world does truly have so much love to oﬀerand so much care.”—Daisy Hernández , coeditor, Colonize This! Young Women of Color on Today’s Feminism  \n“A much-needed counterweight to the all-too-prevalent victim-blaming and shaming , every person should have a copy of Dear Sister on their shelves so that they can reach out and support their friends in times of need.”—Vikki Law, author and activist , Resistance Behind Bars: The Struggles Of Incarcerated Women and Don’t Leave Your Friends Behind: Concrete Ways to Support Families in Social Justice Movements  \n“This chilling , heartbreaking , and necessary collection consists of letters from 40 artists, activists, writers, and students, who are survivors of sexual assault and here oﬀer counsel to “sister” survivors. Every story is shadowed by the teller’s sense of shame, brokenness, depression , and pain , but at the same time, in anticipation of the addressees’experience of sexual assault , the letters also oﬀer comfort , solidarity , reassurance, the possibility of healing , and testimony of survival.
