Abstract

Alarm has been raised by the mainstream anti-rape movement in the United States at the compounded nature of sexual violence experienced by survivors during the Covid pandemic. While these efforts show renewed attention at the problem of compounded sexual violence, these framings of sexual violence as compounded miss the intersectional oppressions experienced by marginalized survivors, such as survivors of color living through a pandemic. This profile advocates for an intervention, asking anti-rape activist-advocates to turn toward an anti-rape movement that addresses the 'compounded-squared' effects of sexual violence during a pandemic.
