Description

In this deeply insightful episode of "Women and Justice," we engage with Karen Holt, an Assistant Professor in the School of Criminal Justice, with a profound focus on the intricacies of sexual deviance and offending and the critical role media plays in shaping societal perceptions of sexual violence. Through her esteemed research, published in notable scholarly journals such as Violence and Victims, Sexual Abuse, and The Journal of Behavioral Medicine, Holt sheds light on the complexities of sexual violence and its portrayal in the media, contributing to a broader understanding and awareness of these pivotal issues. Her active involvement in several professional associations, including the American Society of Criminology, The Latina Researchers Network, and The Research Consortium for Gender-Based Violence, further underscores her commitment to advancing the field of criminology with a keen eye on gender and justice. As a board member of the Michigan chapter of the Association for the Treatment of Sexual Abusers (ATSA) and Small Talk, a children’s advocacy center, Holt's work extends beyond academia, directly impacting communities and fostering environments where survivors can find support and advocacy. This episode explores the intersections of criminal justice, media influence, and societal change, offering invaluable insights into the fight against sexual violence from one of the field’s leading voices. Join us as Dr. Karen Holt guides us through her groundbreaking research and its implications for justice, policy, and community support in addressing sexual violence.
