The words "date" and "rape" are not words that one should ever have to associate together. In reality though, most rape victims know their attackers, and date rape is a common occurrence. Tackling this topic of date rape in an upcoming forum titled "Till’ It Happens To You: Guises of date rape" are Angeline Lawrence, a First year Law student and the president of Asian Law Student Association, local chapter of Brickfields Asia College and Fazlin Azrimi Abu Hassan, a lawyer and co-founder of MY Women Legal Counsel. They join us to discuss why it's important to discuss date rape, especially with younger audiences like college students.
