«Me llamo Chanel. Soy una víctima, no me da reparo utilizar esta palabra, pero sí creer que eso es todo lo que soy. Sin embargo, no soy “la víctima de Brock Turner”. No soy su nada. No le pertenezco». La historia de Chanel Miller cambió el mundo para siempre. En 2016, Brock Turner, de diecinueve años, la violó en el campus de Stanford. Lo que llegó después fue vivir bajo un pseudónimo y uno de los juicios más mediáticos de la historia de EE. UU., tras el que Turner fue sentenciado a tan solo seis meses de cárcel. Decidió compartir en la red la carta que leyó a su violador en el juicio: «Tú no me conoces, pero has estado dentro de mí, y por eso estamos aquí hoy», empezaba. Once millones de personas la leyeron en cuatro días, y provocó la indignación de un país y la reacción internacional. Después de cuatro años viviendo en el anonimato ha dado el paso de hacer pública su identidad. Y ha contado su historia. «Tengo un nombre» son unas memorias íntimas y profundamente conmovedoras, que transformarán para siempre nuestra percepción sobre la violencia sexual y que reclaman justicia, sobre todo, pero también el derecho a seguir viviendo.
