      Junot Díaz has been talking about being sexually assaulted as a child for years; you just had to read between the lines of what he was saying/writing. This is an impression from 2012... there were many after that.https://twitter.com/aurabogado/status/269603015953088512 …

      Seriously wondering if Junot Díaz is trying to tell us that he was sexually abused as a child #FacingRace #ReadingBetweenTheLines

      It’s interesting that Junot Díaz writes in The New Yorker that he’s commented on the intergenerational harm of systemic sexual violence on his community but never said he was a victim. I think he practically did say it, and on more than one occasion.

          Maybe he needs the space to just be. Offer support instead of hounding? What if he went as far as he was able and cannot come out further. Depends on whether the perpetrator is still alive?

          Hounding? What about my tweets made you assume I'm somehow harassing Díaz? Because all I was doing was making a point that he's been talking about this for several years -- only to those who were listening.

          The signs, with almost anything, are almost always there. We have to ask ourselves though: Are we willing to listen, to pay attention?

          I’ve noticed that those of us who have been through trauma and/or care about someone who has, often understand what’s really being said, but a lot of other people don’t have a clue. Seen it happen more than once.
