After Rape

Celeste Marcus' guide for the tormented victims of rape

Andrew Keen

Feb 06, 2024

Transcript

Celeste Marcus, Liberties Quarterly managing editor, is in the news today. In the Winter 2024 volume of Liberties, she wrote “After Rape: A Guide for the Tormented” - a piece about her own experience of a 2021 rape. And today, she revealed the identity of her rapist on X.

“I will not be raped with impunity”, she wrote today to explain why she’s gone public with his identity.

As it happens, I sat down with Marcus last week at the Liberties office in Washington DC to talk about “After Rape”. Our conversation is as raw as the piece, particularly in the context of today’s news.
