Lady Gaga's Chilling New Music Video Sends Powerful Message About Rape

by Katie Corvino

Lady Gaga recently released a music video about sexual assault on college campuses to accompany a song for "The Hunting Ground," a documentary about campus rape.

The song is called "Til It Happens To You," and its lyrics are from the point of view of a victim of sexual assault.

The video is directed by Catherine Hardwicke and follows the stories of several college women who experience sexual violence. It also shows us the love and support the victims receive from friends and family afterward.

The song is dedicated to survivors, and a portion of the proceeds will be donated to organizations that help victims of sexual assaults.

Lady Gaga recently tweeted to survivors about the message she hopes the song conveys.

The video is emotional and powerful, but it does contain graphic content that may be hard to watch for some viewers.
