The well-known "RuPaul's Drag Race" competitor Shangela Laquifa Wadley stated her anger and indignation when accusations of rape and gender abuse were made against her former helper. Shangela expressed her full shock and grief after learning the news in a statement to People magazine.
Unidentified Shangela's ex-assistant filed a complaint, claiming that the drag performer exposed them to sexual harassment, abuse, and gender violence while they were coworkers. According to the lawsuit, Shangela harassed her assistant and coerced them into having an improper sexual encounter. The assistant also claims that Shangela coerced them into signing a non-disclosure agreement in order to silence them.
Shangela made it clear in her statement that she takes these accusations seriously and is dedicated to helping anyone who have experienced sexual assault and harassment. She added that she would cooperate fully with the ongoing inquiry.
The drag queen's supporters have expressed their dismay at the news as well as their support for Shangela. Many have taken to social media to voice their outrage over the allegations and to express their hope that justice will be served.
No further remarks have been made by any party as of yet, and the litigation is still active.

Columbia High School group continues their peer education project. Today they spoke to the senior high school about the dynamics of sexual violence and the continuum of violence. Guest speaker, Serria, shared her personal story of triumph and recovery after sexual abuse. The presentation wrapped up with a discussion about consent.

Tomorrow, Megan, Jessica and Payton will facilitate learning centers where participants will learn about healthy relationships, consent, seeking help and more.

automatically generated text: A goose being force-fed, La Ferme du Treil, Courbiac de Tournon, France, Monday, November 22, 2010.
A tube is inserted into the bird's oesophagus and maize mash is pumped down the tube. Farmer Bernard Laverge massages the goose's neck to encourage ingestion. The process takes less than a minute per bird.
At the start of the force-feeing programme, each goose receives 300g of maize per day. By the end of the three week feeding period, the daily quantity of maize fed has risen to 1.4 kg. An average goose weighs between 7 and 8 kg.
