One Model Exposes Sexual Abuse in the Fashion Industry | Glamour Women of the Year 2017

At Glamour's Women of the Year Live Summit, the model and activist Cameron Russell asked, "what is consent when the law protects him before it protects you?" Standing in front of a giant banner that bore the phrase "We Do Not Consent," Russell said: "People rarely spend time together without speaking, but that is what modeling is. Being in front of the camera is being silent and still finding a way to communicate, to build a relationship, to become someone without words. The silence required by my job is often mistaken for being voiceless. The assumption is that I have nothing to say. Sometimes I believed that too. There were many moments when I found myself speechless."
