When extended family members unite to address long-hidden abuse

Three of us cousins are finally talking about our uncle's behavior at family events — the inappropriate touching, the cornering us when we were teenagers — and we're realizing our parents all knew something but never protected us or each other.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

A group is discovering their shared experience of abuse was an open secret that the adults chose not to confront.
