Ep 37 Denise Brown: 30 Years Later, The Fight Continues

It has been over three decades since the world was shaken by the domestic violence murder of Nicole Brown Simpson. In this powerful and deeply personal episode of Uproot Abuse, host Donna Bartos sits down with Denise Brown, a woman who transformed her family’s unimaginable tragedy into a lifelong mission of advocacy.Denise opens up about who she was on June 11, 1994, versus the outspoken activist she became the very next day. She reflects on thirty years in the trenches—from testifying in the "Trial of the Century" to working with Congress on the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA). Together, Donna and Denise discuss the "elephants in the room" that still plague our society today: the lethal nature of strangulation, the dangers of putting celebrities on pedestals, and the critical need to get "good men" involved in the movement.
