Profiteering and the “Campus Rape Culture”
March 27, 2015
WENDY McELROY writes about the movie, The Hunting Ground:
Political careers, administrative jobs, government grants, book and lecture contracts are just some of vast financial benefits that rest upon continuing the “rape culture” crusade on campus.
The Hunting Ground offers a rare glimpse into what may be a subtle “other financial benefit.”

After heart-breaking and rapid-fire accounts of rape on campus, which offer no mitigating perspective, viewers are exhorted to “Take Action!” The “Take Action” button on the left-hand side of “The Hunting Ground” website takes a visitor to a page that reads, “Donate. THE HUNTING GROUND is proud to partner with NEO Philanthropy to ensure that your tax-deductible donation supports student-led campaigns, public education, policy reform, and prevention approaches.”
NEO Philanthropy is a “transformative” foundation.
