Democracy Now
As the rape trial of two football players from Steubenville, Ohio continues, we speak to political pundit Zerlina Maxwell. Over the past week she has received racially fueled death threats for speaking out against rape. Maxwell, who is a rape survivor, appeared on a Fox News segment with Sean Hannity last week about the possibility of arming women to prevent rape. She said the responsibility should lie instead with men. In response to her remarks, Maxwell received a torrent of abuse on social media with commenters saying she deserved to be gang-raped and killed.
