Take Back the Night featuring Susan Fowler is Thursday, April 24 from 5:15 – 8:00 pm, starting at Kellogg Circle on the ESU campus. This event, free and open to the public, will begin with the traditional march around Kellogg Circle led by SOS and Emporia State University’s THRIVE (The Healthy Relationship and Interpersonal Violence Education program) followed by a speak out. At 6:00 pm, in the Memorial Union’s Preston Family Room, Fowler will present about using your voice to speak out against sexual assault and injustice in the fight for equality. Born and raised in rural Arizona, Fowler escaped poverty through her determination to educate herself, was accepted into an Ivy League College and landed her dream job in Silicon Valley at Uber. After experiencing sexual harassment and retaliation at Uber, Fowler wrote a blog post detailing her account. She became one of the firsts to come forward, contributing to the #MeToo movement. Following Fowler’s presentation will be a book signing for Whistleblower in partnership with Middle Ground Books. Copies will be available for purchase at the event.
