Hi Community, This thread is in support of the countless survivors of Institutional Betrayal in Academic Institutions. Institutional Betrayal trauma theory has laid the foundation for understanding the complexities behind cultural and systemic abuse within workplaces, institutions and cultures. When someone is abused on campus, the Institution has a vested interest in protecting the credibility of the institution. Instead of acknowledging or supporting survivors of abuse, the institution betrays the survivor and protects the perpetrator. While this can spare an institution from being held accountable, or from being drawn into a lawsuit and dishing out millions of dollars in reparations, overtime it presents as a pattern of behavior. Perhaps one survivor's voice is not enough to hold an institution accountable, but when there are thousands of survivors over a long period of time who have similar stories, the institution cannot possibly deny their complicity in years of cover-ups. They are forced to acknowledge their failure in creating a genuine safe place, and instead, for allowing a toxic workplace culture that normalizes abuse to fester. And this is true reality of our institutions. They will stop at nothing to suppress the truth. This problem is being exposed all over the world as we speak; so please do not say this is conspiracy theory, generalization and or any other tactic meant to undermine the credibility of this very serious social issue. There are thousands of survivors who are banding up together to bring this to light. Just type into google, Institutional Betrayal University coverups. Thanks, HD7970ghz
