Unmasking the Dark Side of Power, Pt. 1

In Part 1 of Unmasking the Dark Side of Power, we talk about SA, and the dangerous people who use their power to prey upon our youth. We want to bring awareness to this topic, because it affects so many people. We discuss some prominent abusers who are in the limelight: Jared Fogle, Brian Peck, Jimmy Savile, among others, and how they were able to commit crimes for so long. Part 2 will bring you Epstein, and everything that goes with that topic, but we will also discuss the good guys- people who are doing something about it, and ways we can help! Listener discretion is strongly advised.
