This citizen journalism project compiles accusations of famous men’s abuse based on public record and direct outreach from survivors. Some accusations have led to criminal or civil actions, and where that’s true, I do my best to include the outcome or status of the case.
This project was born from anger about the double standards in our society. Famous women are cancelled for ‘allegations’ they are unfriendly, and famous men often face allegations about sexual assault and domestic violence that seem to stay with the public far less. This project is about our collective memory; inclusion on this list does not prove innocence or guilt. 

According to the Justice Department's analysis of violent crime in 2016, nearly 80% of rape and sexual assault cases go unreported. And when they are reported, 98% of perpetrators walk free; resulting in the re-traumatization of survivors on a mass scale.
