CW: discussions of sexual assault
I don't usually talk about true crime cases, but this is one of the most influential cases in the world of psychology. Kitty Genovese was murdered in 1964 and an article written the New York Times sparked decades of fear that people really don't care enough to intervene. I break down the case, what really happened, and how a simple headline sparked decades of psychological research.
