Overview
In this revised and expanded second edition of Hush Hush, DeShannon Bowens revisits her insightful interviews with the Peterson family. Bowens makes a compelling case that intergenerational healing from sexual abuse cannot happen in Black communities without releasing shame based sexuality narratives from the past. Hush Hush stresses the importance of empowered sexuality narratives and honest communication within families as a key component in preventing and ending child sexual abuse.
