Probably burning all my bridges with local arts institutions here, but my rapist is still employed at @tynesidecinema #metoo https://abs.twimg.com/hashflags... draggable="false" alt="">

When I reported it, the HR department made me do an interview in the very public @tynesidebarcafe, and made me go over the specific and intricate details of my rape while members of the public sat around me having coffee #metoo https://abs.twimg.com/hashflags... draggable="false" alt="">

Heard from the other accusers that the investigation was dismissed as @tynesidecinema never bothered to contact me after getting all the gory details #metoo https://abs.twimg.com/hashflags... draggable="false" alt="">

I guess this hurts because I truly love the @tynesidecinema. I spent five years there surrounded by some of the most wonderful people. But I feel let down that once again, an institution is allowing men to abuse their positions of power #metoo https://abs.twimg.com/hashflags... draggable="false" alt="">

Add insult to injury @tynesidecinema contacted the police w/out my consent. I didnt want to prosecute as there was no evidence but got dragged through the police system to the eventual dropping of the case cuz you guessed it, there was no evidence. Thx for that xtra trauma #metoo https://abs.twimg.com/hashflags... draggable="false" alt="">

So yeah, goodbye career in the arts I guess https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤷🏽‍♀️" title="Achselzuckende Frau (mittlerer Hautton)" aria-label="Emoji: Achselzuckende Frau (mittlerer Hautton)"> I just hope @tynesidecinema find a way to materially address the circumstances that allow a predator free reign to their staff instead of a mealy mouthed PR apology that they will ‘do better’ & ‘take the claims seriously’ #metoo https://abs.twimg.com/hashflags... draggable="false" alt="">

While we’re at it, as one of the only poc in the entire organisation at the time (lol). I was in a vulnerable and precarious situation & haven’t been dealt with with any respect. So plz take that into account in your next ‘commitment to anti-racism meeting’ @tynesidecinema #metoo https://abs.twimg.com/hashflags... draggable="false" alt="">
