This all seems so fusty and frumpy when the people who are REALLY ripping the lid off Pandora’s Box of institutional CSA/Trafficking are celebrities opening up on platforms like YouTube
A Tsunami of outrage

Actually many survivors of Sherborne Prep went on to have extremely successful careers. In order to do this a survivor has to compartmentalise their trauma.
I know of an A list actor for example who wouldn’t speak out, or even admit he was ever sent to SP
Damages one’s brand/mask

Yet what an extraordinary difference it would have made to my effort to expose #SherborneShame
It would’ve been so easy for so famous a person to lift the lid.
It could’ve been a huge news story.
I hope one day he’ll speak out in his own time.

#TRUTH ❤️

The kind of Boarding Schools the celebrities attended were not the same as elite BS, being more about reform and tho @ParisHilton was sent as a teenager, not 7/8 the power her voice has to support survivors and expose Child Abuse IS extraordinary
