Our friends at Into Account are in the middle of a brilliant blog series that makes down-to-earth sense of the Title IX mayhem Betsy DeVos is currently orchestrating. I think the series is so helpful that I asked if Our Stories Untold could cross-post each piece of it as it develops, and Stephanie Krehbiel – the writer of the series – gave the idea a hearty YES. The national debates happening now over Title IX have an immediate impact on current and future students in Mennonite and all other schools. (If you know a Menno school teacher, prof, or administrator, maybe consider passing this series along.) The fact that these debates are even happening is also causing strife for a whole lot of sexual violence survivors who aren’t students, because they are having to watch and listen as the government that wields power over their lives calls the validity of their experience and the value of their survival into question. Thanks, Stephanie and Into Account, for helping us stay clear, informed, and ready to support each other and the sexual violence survivors in our communities through the Title IX chaos as it unfolds. – Hilary J.
