Ep 202 AA Cult Whistleblowing with Monica Richardson
About this Episode
Today on the podcast we have 13th Step Filmmaker Monica Richardson sharing about 15 year journey of dissenting AA.
Monica first spoke up within AA wanting to make the rooms safer. Then she, along with others, wrote AA HQ in New York.
But people weren't wanting to hear about the crimes in AA and how to make it safer. This led her to speak up outside AA and eventually to make a documentary about the s*xual assualt and m*rder inside Alcoholics Anonymous. Monica's film is called The 13th Step.
