Chapter 8 – The Silent System: Misogyny, Safety & Speaking the Truth

Chapter 8 – The Silent System: Misogyny, Safety & Speaking the Truth

Description:

Misogyny isn’t just an old-fashioned idea — it’s still alive in the subtle expectations and unspoken rules that shape women’s lives every day.

In this powerful and deeply personal chapter of Burn It Down & Begin Again, Erica shares a story that hits close to home: her daughter’s recent assault by a rideshare driver and the painful aftermath that revealed how deeply misogyny still runs through our culture. From victim-blaming to corporate silence, she exposes how women’s pain is too often dismissed, minimized, or hidden — and why that has to change.

Erica unpacks:
 🔥 The unspoken ways misogyny still shapes women’s safety and voices
 🔥 The staggering statistics behind rideshare assaults — and why most go unreported
 🔥 How cultural conditioning teaches women to downplay danger and self-blame
 🔥 Why systems protect predators instead of survivors
 🔥 The power of women sharing their stories to break silence and reclaim agency

This isn’t just an episode — it’s a wake-up call. Because misogyny may be centuries old, but so is women’s resilience. And when one woman speaks, she gives others permission to rise, heal, and burn the silence down.
