Sara has since used these testimonies to raise awareness about misogyny in schools and to lobby for institutional change. Most recently, she has appeared in Vogue, in most major newspapers, and spoken to the Department for Education about the pervasiveness of these problemsl.

If anyone reading this is feeling attacked by this talk, I implore you to head to Everyone's Invited and read a handful of testimonies.

I love the Berlin story, where she and her group are wearing Waffen SS uniforms, after all what a person wears is no excuse for how other people behave towards That fact that she made a reference to what she was wearing being a trigger indicates that she knows precisely, to paraphrase Polonius in Shakespeare's Hamlet, that "Clothes maketh a Woman, and those in Berlin are of the highest rank and station in that!"

My guess, with a name like "Everyone's invited" is that the name is unintentionally ironic is that is excludes particular groups of people that don't share the same delusions or incessant victim mentality.

Turns out watching 46 seconds was enough. May as well ask everyone whether the Teletubbies exist.
