Part manifesto, part exploration of what justice truly means for
survivors of trauma and abuse, Judith Herman forces us to
reconsider our perspective on victims, revealing uncomfortable
truths about our justice systems and proposing new ways to
implement justice. A follow-up to the bestselling Trauma and
Recovery the book is divided into three parts, Part One :Power,
examines the structure and nature of tyranny, patriarchy and white
supremacy; Part Two: Visions of Justice, reveals how our current
system is woefully ill-equipped for victims and corrects our
misguided assumptions about what survivors need in the aftermath of
violence, and finally in Part Three: Centring Survivor Justice,
Herman proposes alternative methods of justice, offering hopeful
new ways to think about its meanings and possibilities. Truth and
Repair is a profound and timely commentary that lies at the
intersection of several cultural moments including the #MeToo
movement, a resurgent interest in trauma, and the global movements
focusing on racial injustices and abuses of power towards people of
colour. Thoughtful, visceral and moving, Truth and Repair is a
necessary call to action that invites us to envision a new approach
to justice-one that centres on healing and solidarity to stand with
survivors everywhere.
