Karin Martel rarely thought of the boy who repeatedly groped her in shop class in grade nine. That's because she believed it was not worth mentioning -- let alone thinking about. But then in 2018 when she went to talk to a therapist about the stress of her job as a 911 call taker, she blurted out the story about the boy. Host Leisha Grebinski speaks with the author of Shop Class Hall Pass: Facing the Buried Trauma of Sexual Assault. https://www.cbc.ca/listen/live-radio/1-88/clip/15984095

Karin Martel thinks many women have stories similar to hers. She wrote her memoir because she thinks that -- like her -- many other victims don't allow themselves to think of their experiences as sexual assault.
