Why "Black Box" is a Must-Read in Sri Lanka

A Brave and Personal Account

In "Black Box," Shiori Ito courageously tells her story of sexual assault, not as a victim, but as a survivor seeking to bring light to the darkness of abuse. Through her memoir, she discusses the trauma of her experience, the challenges of navigating the legal and social systems, and her fight for justice in a society that often silences such stories. This book offers a rare, firsthand perspective on the societal stigma surrounding sexual violence and the importance of speaking out.

A Story of Empowerment and Justice

This memoir is not only a personal narrative but also a call to action for individuals and societies to address issues of sexual violence. Shiori Ito’s unflinching honesty and strength in the face of adversity provide an important platform for conversations about consent, power dynamics, and the role of the media and law in bringing about change.

Memorable Quotes from "Black Box"

“Silence is not the answer. The answer is speaking out, telling your truth, even if it is painful.”

 Translation (Sinhala): "නිවන් නොමැත. පිළිතුර නම් ඔබගේ සත්‍යය කියා පෙන්වීමයි, එය වේදනාත්මක වුවත්."

Translation (Tamil): "மௌனம் பதில் அல்ல. பதில் உங்கள் உண்மையை கூறுவது, அது வலிமையானது என்றாலும்."

“Justice is not something you can expect from others. It is something you must fight for.

” Translation (Sinhala): "අයිතිය එය වෙනුවෙන් වෙනත් කෙනෙකුගෙන් අපේක්ෂා කළ නොහැකි දෙයකි. එය ඔබට සටන් කළ යුතු දෙයකි."

 Translation (Tamil): "நியாயம் நீங்கள் பிறரிடமிருந்து எதிர்பார்க்கக்கூடிய ஒன்றல்ல. அது நீங்கள் போராட வேண்டும் என்று வேண்டிய ஒன்றாகும்."
