Talking to Strangers: What We Should Know about the People We Don't Know by Malcolm Gladwell

***WARNING FOR MENTION OF SA***
Gladwell lost me when he declared that the solution to college SA to curb college drinking - not to educate about consent, not to hold perpetrators accountable - but that the solution was to address college alcohol consumption. It was especially disgusting that he used People v Turner as the example, as Turner's victim was found mid-assault while unconscious, on the ground, behind a dumpster - then tried to run away when caught because even while intoxicated, he knew what he did was wrong.
