#6 Amy Ziering: Doco filmmaker, really good listener

How do we help people move through trauma? Just listen, says Amy Ziering. And she’d know. The documentary filmmaker has taken on enormous institutions—like the US military—and had some seriously difficult conversations. Her latest film, The Hunting Ground, tells the harrowing story of the culture of rape in American universities and has had an enormous social impact since it was released. And just a heads-up before you listen, this podcast discusses sexual assault and could be traumatic for some.
