“In a world that can be callous and dismissive of rape victims and their experiences, Cheyenne is a light in the darkness. Her book, and her experience, illustrates that rape victims have the strength to move mountains, and the power to change the world. I couldn’t be prouder of Cheyenne for producing this work, for being that voice, and for shining her light, as bright as can be.”
Michael Thurston, Deputy District Attorney, Sensitive Crimes Unit, Waukesha County District Attorney’s Office
