In an interview with Vanity Fair, Reese Witherspoon wanted to explain why she revealed the sexual assault that a director subjected her to at the age of 16 years only in 2017.
"Recently, a reporter asked me why I hadn't mentioned it earlier," she said. It's so interesting to hear someone who has had this kind of experience talk, so why make a judgment on how they decide to do it? You tell your story at your own pace and when you are ready. The shame she tried to put on my back was unreal, and afterwards she wrote that I was selfish not to have spoken earlier. "
Continuous learning
"The public did not see it the same way twenty-five years ago when it happened to me," said Reese Witherspoon. There was no forum to talk about it either. Social media has created a new way of speaking for people I didn't have. I think we make a lot of judgments, and it is unfortunate, because we are all novices in these new times. We are trying to find our identity. "

When I first saw this cover, I thought, “Oh my goodness… what a goofball!” But here I am captured, probably snort-laughing, in all my goofy glory! I enjoyed every minute of chatting with the divine #AnnPatchett (one of my favorite authors and independent booksellers) about storytelling, growing up in Nashville, and the importance of dog portraits! There might even be an embarrassing high school story involving beer and a coke machine. Thanks to the whole team who made me laugh all day. Photos by @jackie_nickerson.
