Season 2015 Episode 9 | 26m 46s  | Video has closed captioning.

This week on Basic Black, we’re presenting two exclusive webcasts posted earlier this winter where we discuss high-profile gendered violence and the public response. First, we examine the allegations of sexual misconduct against Bill Cosby and why he was protected for so long. Later, we unpack Janay Rice's response after being assaulted by her husband, NFL running back Ray Rice.
