Conversation with actor Anthony Edwards and author Stephen Mills
About this episode
The episode features a conversation with Anthony Edwards and Stephen Mills about their experiences with childhood sexual abuse and its long-term impacts.
In this episode, we have a conversation with Stephen Mills, author of Chosen: A Memoir of Stolen Boyhood and actor, producer and director Anthony Edwards who some will remember as Goose from the movie Top Gun or Dr. Greene from the television show ER. We are grateful for the authenticity and courage of these men as they share their experiences of sexual abuse as boys. Please join us as we discuss the long term impact of childhood sexual abuse, institutional coverups and the unwillingness of "bystanders" to take a stand.
