During the first episode we discussed the frequency of sexual abuse within our homes, familiies and communities. Tonight mystic philosopher Dina Deon, Ms Grier & our special guest Deon will be going further into the healing and releasing process to discuss...

The Statistics

•  1 in 4 women and 1 in 6 men report they were sexually abused before 18
• Every 8 minutes, Child Protective Service responds to a report of sexual abuse
• 93% of juvenile sexual assault victims know their attacker
• 34.2% of attackers were family members
• 58.7% were acquaintances
• Only 7% of the perpetrators were strangers to the victim
• From victim reports, it appears that there is at least 1 pedophile in every black family, and sadly most have more than one
