Lena Dunham Pens Powerful Essay in Support of Kesha
Kesha's ongoing battle against alleged rapist Dr. Luke has inspired myriad celebrities to show their support: Everyone from Lorde to Dev Hynes have made their love and admiration for the "TiK ToK" singer known. The latest on the ever-growing list of famous folk fed up with K's unjust situation is Girls creator Lena Dunham, who penned a lengthy essay in her newsletter Lenny Letter titled "Why Kesha's Case Is About More Than Kesha."
She writes of Kesha's relationship with Dr. Luke:
"Imagine someone really hurt you, physically and emotionally. Scared you and abused you, threatened your family. The judge says that you don't have to see them again, BUT they still own your house. So they can decide when to turn the heat on and off, whether they'll pay the telephone bill or fix the roof when it leaks. After everything you've been through, do you feel safe living in that house? Do you trust them to protect you?"
