And sometimes they kill you: Confronting the epidemic of intimate partner violence

Book tour schedule

A new book by Pamela Cross

Why have we failed to respond effectively to intimate partner violence, a social problem that affects millions of women and children? And Sometimes They Kill You: Confronting the Epidemic of Intimate Partner Violence untangles what it is, the barriers to its eradication, and what we could be doing to eliminate those barriers.

Cross offers practical and hopeful ideas for how each of us can engage in the vital work of eradicating intimate partner violence. This is a call to action for the all-of-society, revolutionary response to gender-based violence needed to build communities that are safe and healthy for everyone.
