Open Letter to Offending Pedophiles and Child Molesters
Dear Pedophile & Child Molester,
I see you.
I see the way you were hurt or shamed by someone when you were young, and that this is why you feel you need to hurt someone smaller: to numb the open wound you always carry.
You have an illness.
And like a disease, if not brought under control, this illness will continue to spread through you until it corrupts every part of your humanity.
But you can stop. This illness can be treated and cured. You don’t have to do this.

PODCAST EP 28 Confronting An Abuser + Being A Male Survivor
Episode Summary
It's misunderstood and underreported. CSA (child sexual abuse) is thought to be a crime against girls, but it's also a problem faced by boys and it's grossly overlooked. We must speak up collectively and unanimously. Jeremy Indika is using his voice to do so and in a powerful way!
Episode Notes
In this episode, we talk about Jeremy's story, how he confronted his abuser, what happened when he did, what it led to, and how that experience has moved him to continue being an advocate.
Jeremy's story is one of courage and defiance. It's a story of how we can look at our toxic masculinity culture and challenge it to dismantle it.
