Welcome to Raw Reflections
This is where the commentary gets sharp, the writing gets bold, and nothing is off-limits. Raw Reflections is more than a blog—it’s an ongoing conversation about law, identity, culture, power, and the personal truths we’re told to keep quiet.
Here, I unpack courtroom drama, critique pop culture, analyze the systems meant to protect us (but often don’t), and write through the chaos of being alive in a world that demands silence from the loudest hearts. From legal education to emotional storytelling, every post is crafted with clarity, depth, and purpose.
If you’re here for truth, for context, for the unfiltered version of what really matters—then you’re in the right place.

Rape Doesn’t Always Scream. Sometimes It’s Silent.
Rape doesn’t always scream. Sometimes it’s silent—hidden behind a bottle, a blackout, and the excuses people make for men who should’ve known better. At 18, I thought I was grown, chasing freedom through recklessness. Instead, I was raped. This isn’t for pity. It’s for power, and for every young woman who thinks danger equals independence. Learn from me before it’s too late.
