"I was recently the victim of an act of violence by a man. After a party, I was shot twice as I walked away from him. We were not in a relationship. Truthfully, I was shocked that I ended up in that place," says Megan about the night that Tory allegedly shot her. "My initial silence about what happened was out of fear for myself and my friends. Even as a victim, I have been met with skepticism and judgment. The way people have publicly questioned and debated whether I played a role in my own violent assault proves that my fears about discussing what happened were, unfortunately, warranted."

She continues by reflecting on her own experience, relating to the countless women, and especially Black women, who have suffered abuse at the hands of men.

"After a lot of self-reflection on that incident, I’ve realized that violence against women is not always connected to being in a relationship. Instead, it happens because too many men treat all women as objects, which helps them to justify inflicting abuse against us when we choose to exercise our own free will," writes Megan.

She explains that we place too much value on how others view us, communicating that Black women have it much worse than anybody else in America.

"The issue is even more intense for Black women, who struggle against stereotypes and are seen as angry or threatening when we try to stand up for ourselves and our sisters," says Meg. "There’s not much room for passionate advocacy if you are a Black woman."

Really? Ny times? Roc nation going crazy crazy

trolling itt & misogyny/misogynoir will lead to a mute or ban btw

I would very much like this case closed and the truth to completely come out. This he said she said s*** is for the birds imo

😀

I thought it was kinda weird how everyone kept tryna say they were in a relationship

But f*** Tory Lanez

Imagine not believing her.

I can't believe there are so many users in here who takes Tory's side in this despite everything we know. Disgusting.

But honestly print media interviews is a great pr tactic because obv people don’t read and the blogs will run the chatty patty snippets only

Is he being persecuted? I havent really been following this story for a while now.

he facing 22yrs

Crazy. Cant imagine him getting over 2 years tho.

What do we know? not trolling

nothing

its just he said she said

but i think they have proof that Torys gun was used to shoot her

just nobody knows if he was there with her at the time of the shooting or if he was the one who shot her

All I am gonna say here though is imagine if instead of Meg, this was a male rapper writing an article about another rapper shooting him. I bet he would be clowned all day and called soft.

Tory was arrested because the gun used to shoot her was linked to him

but that doesnt prove he shot her or even was there at the scene of the crime

he is a clear suspect though

unprovoked violence against women ≠ unprovoked violence against men
