We’d like to give a content warning for rape, sexual assault, and harassment. Take care of yourself when listening to this ep and moving through the world. And, if you ever need it, call the Lifeline hotline on 13 11 14.
Chanel Contos became a household name in 2021 after beginning an Instagram poll asking for Australian girls and women’s stories of sexual assault. After an outpouring of responses, Chanel began Teach Us Consent, a movement that urged the government to include sexual consent education in the curriculum.
Since then, Chanel has created huge change in the country and won the Young People’s Human Rights Medal. As of this week, Chanel is also an author. Her first book, Consent Laid Bare, explores sex, consent and the education we all should have had.
You can buy Consent Laid Bare here (or from all good book retailers) and follow Chanel at @chanelc and @teachusconsent.
