Horror on Seymour Avenue

Horror on Seymour Avenue

As we prepare to celebrate Mother's Day this weekend, we have seen three young women's liberation was imprisoned in the past 10 years in a ramshackle house in Cleveland near a dilapidated message. Michelle Knight,Adams and Amanda Berry, and her daughter was born six years during confinement, released from their captives Ariel Castro last Monday. Michelle is only 21 years old in 2002 when her captors, took her into his house and did not let her go. In the next few years, she joined by two teenage girls: Amanda, 17,14 and Gina. First come to the rescue of one of the three women is Charles Ramsey, Ariel Castro opposite of an African American living on Seymour Avenue.

Story complex, which will no doubt some time to expand, emerging the scenes point to the familiar picture. Often the victims of abuse of their actions: Ariel Castro suicide note in 2004, detailing his sexual abuse as a child of their own history. Prone to sexual abuse of women usually have a history of abuse: Michelle school dropouts, 17 and sexual assault, abuse her and her son a person who is living in an abusive relationship. 

Behavior and the victim is usually familiar: Gina is best friends with Ariel Castro's daughter, she was kidnapped before he had seen her just an hour ago, the perpetrator lured to his home Gina. The perpetrator is not a readily identifiable antisocial people living in isolation: Ariel Castro Latin band playing music in Cleveland and loved his collection base guitar. He even accepted the other musicians in his 1400 square foot house, and he has three captive women detained in an adjacent room. In fact, he helped organize a benefit concert to help the community search efforts to find the missing women!

These are good things to learn. They told us that we have confirmed that the touch point for intervention and prevention. The question is: our communities have the resources and inclination to intervene? Seymour Avenue event will tell us a lot in the coming months. They will also tell us some of our children in school sex education to escape they found themselves in similar unfortunate circumstances, reduce motivation. Elizabeth Smart, tortured her captive over the years that its role.

 Smart Ms. memories of feeling, "I am about to sexual assault, I'm worthless." This feeling, plus known as the "Stockholm Syndrome 'victim's life depends on the behavior, you can create a hopeless cycle dependent children captive. intelligent President to review her sex education in schools, before she was kidnapped, I remember the teacher is like those girls engage in frequent sex, excessive chewing a piece of gum, ready to be rejected and I hope Seymour Avenue event will teach Our sex education, find a better metaphor.

Then there is our hero Charles Ramsey. TV coverage of the population has shown that the man apparently has a hobby performance and turn off the camera. Sadly, social media focused on the pretense of the laughter and the brave, spontaneous speech of African Americans. When Remy said, "Brothers, I know something is wrong when a pretty little white girl ran into the arms of a black man," This is no laughing matter. This is a vivid explanation we are stereotyped afraid of black men. This is the same person who told Anderson Cooper said he did not want to receive positioning bonus of three women. Ramsay hopes the money can be used to take care of these women were rescued.
