This candid conversation between Amy Wallace, co-author with Virginia Roberts Giuffre of her autobiography Nobody’s Girl: A Memoir of Surviving Abuse and Fighting for Justice, and Eliza Anyangwe, editor-in-chief of global women-focused newsroom Fuller, will consider the political and cultural context in which the 2025 best-seller was published. The conversation will explore Wallace’s role in co-authoring the book and her reflections on what the political manoeuvering around the Epstein files and Ghislaine Maxwell reveal about power, politics and patriarchy in the US today. We will also talk about the work of keeping survivors’ stories front and center even and about the wider, deeper societal issues so rarely discussed as media interest so regularly gravitates towards the powerful individuals accused and not to the structural problems Giuffre’s story captures so painfully, such as class, criminal justice, pervasive sexual violence and the exploitation and trafficking of girls and vulnerable young women. Organised in association with Fuller.
