Many of us like to think that human beings are basically good, kind, and generous, and will stand up for others in trouble - that they’ll help victims when they see harmful and illegal behavior right in front of them. I’m an innately positive person, and I too want to believe in the inherent goodness and kindness of people, and in the moral integrity of most human beings. Some data on the magnitude of the problem:First, the definition of Sexual Assault:Sexual assault is a term that includes sexual harassment, unwanted sexual contact, child sexual abuse, incest, and rape. Sexual contact becomes assault when a person is unable to or does not consent to an activity. But yet, so many of those who know about and see the abuse right in front of them don’t come forward to speak or fight openly against it.
