Victoria Canal, a singer-songwriter in a deeply sorrowful Instagram post has been publicly calling out a so-called powerful male figure accusing him of sex abuse she went through when she was 19 years old. Not only is the nature of the post emotional, but it can also be considered a very personal, even painful experience she has shared with her followers, and it illuminates an existential problem in the music industry and other spheres.

Her brutal, cut-to-the-chase personal story chimes with many other survivors who have found themselves felt to have had minds of their own and to be in a position to speak against power. Canal determines the incident to be a formative and traumatic event, where power and influence is at a complex stake to be able to survive within the world of a young artist.

The Power Dynamic and its Impact

The claims which are raised by Victoria Canal are a very clear reminder of damaging power structures that are usually present in creative industries. The main theme of her story is the use by individuals in power over other individuals based on their career interests causing an atmosphere of fear and dominion. Entering the realm of speaking out may become an impossible risk in such a setting, and the consequences of doing so may affect an individual professionally.

It is one of the most important aspects of abuse since this silencing effect gives abusers the freedom to act without any consequences in the knowledge that their victims might be scared enough to not speak about the abuse.

The #MeToo Movement and Artist Empowerment

The post by Victoria Canal demonstrates the continuation of the impact the MeToo movement has sparked as it gives survivors the encouragement to tell their stories and gain revenge. Speaking up with her platform, she takes part in the bigger discussion about responsibility and the safety of artists. Her bravery can give hope to the people who have had similar trauma and act as a source of hope and belonging to someone.

The reaction to her post – by fans and other artists – indicates a broader trend toward a belief and support in survivor, which is the final step towards downfall of the systems that create these abused people and gives power to a generation of creators demanding the treatment, safety and respect.
