Complicit

A thoroughly researched and deeply&,nbsp,personal examination of how women&,nbsp,unintentionally condone workplace abuse&,nbsp,in a post-#MeToo world—and a guide to&,nbsp,changing things for the better When Reah Bravo began working at the Charlie Rose&,nbsp,show, the open secret of Rose’s conduct toward women&,nbsp,didn’t deter her from pursuing a position she thought&,nbsp,could launch her career in broadcast journalism. She&,nbsp,considered herself more than capable of handling any&,nbsp,unprofessional behavior that might come her way. But&,nbsp,she soon learned a devastating truth: we don’t always&,nbsp,react to abusive situations as we imagine we would.In a society where many feminist ideals are mainstream&,nbsp,and women hold positions of power, how does sexual&,nbsp,misconduct remain as prevalent as it is? When so many&,nbsp,employers mandate training to prevent harassment&,nbsp,of all kinds, why is workplace abuse still rampant? Weaving her own experience with those of other&,nbsp,women and insights from experts, Bravo reveals the&,nbsp,psychological and cultural forces that make us all&,nbsp,enablers of a sexist and dangerous status quo. By&,nbsp,bringing these hard truths to light, Complicit charts&,nbsp,an accessible path toward a better future.
