An Open Letter to Dr. Christine Blasey Ford September 26, 2018 The following letter was posted on September 18, 2018 and remained open for signatures until Sep- tember 25, 2018. During this time, 1,433 individuals who grew up in the Washington DC area signed on, as did 112 allied supporters. On behalf of these signatories, today, September 26, 2018, we deliver this letter to Senator Dick Durbin and Senator Tammy Duckworth and ask that it be submitted to the Senate Judiciary Committee as it continues to consider the nomination of Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court of the United States. AN OPEN LETTER TO DR. CHRISTINE BLASEY FORD, We are women and men who grew up in the same world as both you and Brett Kavanaugh - in Chevy Chase, Bethesda, and Northwest DC. We attended the same elite private schools, country clubs, and churches. And we believe you. Each one of us heard your story and not one of us was surprised. These are the stories of our lives and our friends’ lives. We know the terrible impact of sexual assault, coercive behavior, and harassment that pervaded the culture of our youth and continues today. And we under- stand why girls and women often do not report their attackers because of the fear of being disbelieved, shamed, and ostracized. Nor will we be surprised by the ugliness that will likely come next as your character and your memories are attacked and belittled. We stand with you. We are humbled by your bravery. We will not allow you to be silenced.
