Making herself yet more exposed Emma Sulkowicz bravely publishes this video and in an effort to bring attention to rape and how this is tacitly approved by ‘modern’ society.
By posting the video she is now exposed to agression by virtual – as if very real and phisical were not enough – means of hatred.
As to many women guilty of thinking – and speaking up – for themselves this is bound to trigger tons of cynicism.
Legitimate questioning whether this is best form to push debate about rape in society may rise as well, and in this case it is possible that part of what appears to be Emma’s goal – bring attention to the cause – is achieved.
