***The following episode deals with issues of sexual violence.*** Over twenty years ago, Thordis Elva of Iceland shared a teenage romance with Tom Stranger, an exchange student visiting from Australia. After a school dance in 1996, when she was 16 and he was 18, he raped her. After parting ways and independently examining their own feelings and responses to the traumatic event, Thordis got in touch with Tom. The two would go on to correspond for years and later meet in South Africa to navigate the pain surrounding Tom’s actions together. In October 2016, they recorded a controversial joint TED Talk exploring this journey. This week, we’re joined by Nari Malkhasyan to discuss the talk and its implications regarding shame, trauma and humanity. As we felt the original talk pursued, we hope we also touch on the uncomfortable nuance and difficult questions in our conversation. Lastly, like any episode, this conversation is about reflection and inquiry, not conclusion and declaration. What we discuss may clash with your perspectives and similarly, what Thordis and Tom explored (and acknowledged) is not a prescription for all survivors and perpetrators.

No matter what form it takes, abuse leaves us indelibly altered, often consumed by an emotional confusion that feels impossible to untangle. In this episode, we hear from three people with firsthand experience of abuse, each speaking from a profoundly different perspective. Rachel Jeffs recounts escaping the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints after years of suffering sexual abuse by her cult leader and father Warren Jeffs, while documentarian Attiya Khan recollects the domestic abuse she endured as a teenager—and the experience of confronting her abuser two decades after breaking free. And in a particularly fraught account, Tom Stranger narrates the night in high school when he raped his then-girlfriend, who later tracked him down as part of her recovery. In sharing their stories with candid detail, these guests ultimately instill us with a more nuanced understanding of abuse, its impact, and the immense possibility for healing.

Award-winning writer, journalist and public speaker, Thordis Elva was voted Woman of the Year in her native Iceland for her tireless campaigning for gender equality. She believes in ending the silence that still shrouds sexual violence, of which she is a survivor, and sees dialogue as a means of healing. She has long researched the effect of forgiveness in human relationships, an interest which took her across the globe and into the depths of her own heart, resulting in the book South of Forgiveness which she wrote with Tom Stranger.

Thordis Elva is disrupting patriarchy. In her forthcoming book, South of Forgiveness, she and her coauthor are challenging the world to rethink our approaches and assumptions on how we address sexual violence and gender stereotypes. I first learnt about her work when I saw her give a TEDTalk at TEDWomen 2015. In the talk, she, the survivor of rape, gave a talk with the perpetrator of rape, Tom Stranger. They stood side-by-side and delivered one of the most thought-provoking talks of the day. The conversations in halls after their talk were diverse. Questions like did Tom need to be punished for his violent act? Had already been punished? Should we address rape through punitive approaches? In this Disruptive Conversation, she argues that violent acts, like rape, are not committed by monsters but by people. In this complex conversation, we explore a number of topics related to sexual violence and gender equality. Thordis is trying to disrupt the way we think about problems in society. In this talk, we go behind her recent TEDTalk and learn a little about what she was hoping to accomplish with her forthcoming book,In this Disruptive Conversation, Thordis argues that violent acts, like rape, are not committed by monsters but by people.

Thordis Elva is disrupting patriarchy. In her forthcoming book, South of Forgiveness, she and her coauthor are challenging the world to rethink our approaches and assumptions on how we address sexual violence and gender stereotypes. I first learnt about her work when I saw her give a TEDTalk at TEDWomen 2015. In the talk, she, the survivor of rape, gave a talk with the perpetrator of rape, Tom Stranger. They stood side-by-side and delivered one of the most thought-provoking talks of the day. The conversations in halls after their talk were diverse. Questions like did Tom need to be punished for his violent act? Had already been punished? Should we address rape through punitive approaches? In this Disruptive Conversation, she argues that violent acts, like rape, are not committed by monsters but by people.
