“Fiercely vulnerable and impressively researched, Complicit is at once a salient self-examination and an unflinching interrogation of the societal permissions we both knowingly and unknowingly grant to powerful (mostly white) men behaving badly. At a critical time in the ongoing fight for gender and racial justice, Bravo has written an empathic and concise book that will inspire the next generation of voices courageous enough to rage against the machine.”
—Rebecca Carroll, author of the critically acclaimed memoir Surviving the White Gaze

“Reah Bravo has written a brave book. It is brave not merely because it is honest, but because it declines to make its case via tired political rhetoric. Instead, Bravo employs blunt self-awareness and rigorous scholarly research when interrogating her experiences (and our moment). The result is a text that imbues #MeToo-era discourse with a fresh voice.”
—Kate Bolick, author of the New York Times bestselling Spinster: Making a Life of One’s Own

“Reading Complicit was a surprisingly emotional experience for me. I saw myself throughout the pages and in the stories told. Having survived my own toxic work environment and sexual assault, I was transported back to how I found myself in those situations. I related to all Reah Bravo explained about how the ecosystem I have grown up in led to these moments. This book made me feel less alone, less like things I had experienced were my fault. It also left me with hope, that by puling back the curtain and seeing the responsibility we can all take, that change can truly happen.”
—Kara Goucher, New York Times bestselling author of The Longest Race
