Know My Name A Memoir

She was known to the world as Emily Doe when her victim impact statement stunned millions. After being sexually assaulted on Stanford's campus, she watched as the man responsible was sentenced to just six months in jail. Her letter, posted on BuzzFeed, went viral and exposed a justice system designed to fail the most vulnerable. It gave courage to others and inspired legal changes. But behind the anonymity was a young woman whose life had been fractured, her identity erased and replaced with shame and isolation.

Now, Chanel Miller reclaims her own name and her story. This memoir is an account of trauma and the grueling aftermath of a public trial, but it is also a testament to the power of words to heal and transcend. Miller's narrative entwines pain, resilience, and humor to illuminate a culture biased to protect perpetrators and to shine with the courage required to move through suffering. It is a story that will forever transform the way we think about sexual assault and introduce a writer whose voice has already changed our world.
