As historians, we know the power of stories. They convey the contours of change over time, enlighten us about lives lived differently from our own, awaken us to unimagined possibilities, and inspire us to take action. The personal narratives of survivors of sexual harassment and advocates in the fight against campus sexual violence are no different. It is only through their stories that we can fully understand the personal, emotional, and professional harms wrought by gender discrimination, sexual harassment, and sexual violence. Thus, we must listen.
