Aly Raisman Teams With 'Sports Illustrated' For Inspirational Shoot

Aly Raisman Teams With 'Sports Illustrated' For Inspirational Shoot The Olympic gymnast was part of a campaign called "In Her Own Words," which features women with impactful words painted on their bodies. The word "FIERCE" and the phrase "WOMEN DO NOT HAVE TO BE MODEST TO BE RESPECTED" are featured here. Raisman was just one of hundreds of women who were sexually assaulted by ex-Olympic doctor Larry Nassar. I would like to remind everyone that being a survivor is nothing to be ashamed of, and going through a hard time does not define you. I hope that we can one day get to a point where everyone realizes that women do not have to be modest to be respected. Raisman made an appearance during Nassar's trial and has remained in the public eye over the last several months, serving as a role model to women everywhere.
