Popular Twitch streamer “BrookeAB” has courageously spoken out about her past experiences with sexual assault and rape during a heartfelt broadcast on her channel. The emotional disclosure came during a Twitch stream titled Talking, where the 100 Thieves-affiliated personality broke down in tears while addressing her viewers.
BrookeAB revealed, “‘Can someone tell me what happened?’ I was just referring to my personal experiences in college and growing up. I was sexually assaulted and raped.” Her candid admission shed light on the trauma she endured, highlighting the importance of breaking the silence surrounding such sensitive issues.
The Twitch streamer expressed her unhappiness with her colleagues’ reactions in the content production sector, emphasizing the need to not victim-blaming and advocating for empathy and support for survivors.
“There is just a lot going on right now in the creator space. I’m really disappointed in my peers and how they are… reacting and kind of downplaying the situation,” she said.
Recognizing the potential repercussions of speaking up, she stressed the importance of elevating survivors’ voices and campaigning for their rights.
“So yeah, I just think it’s important not to victim blame. It is important to hear people out. And it does end in getting a lot of s**t, as you can tell, on the internet. You speak up for people, it does not normally end well for you,” she stated.
The streamer took to social media on March 12, 2024, to share a meaningful message with her audience about the significance of her recent disclosure. She expressed gratitude for the support she has received, underlining her commitment to advocating for sexual assault victims and urging others to speak up.
In her tweet, the 25-year-old streamer wrote, “Said the words out loud today on stream that for years I was too afraid to say. I have been sexually assaulted, I have been raped, and I am stronger than that person ever will be. It’s taken years to come to this healing point in my trauma, but I will never stop speaking for victims like myself and so many others. It’s important to know you aren’t alone. Thank you for your support and listening.”
