I've heard this phrase before - usually preceding other words like rape, child abuse, domestic violence, HIV - it's associated with calls for justice, bravery, doing the right thing, not being complicit to injustice and an acknowledgement that the victim should not be ashamed of the wrong doing done to her/him.
I want to break the silence, really break the silence on my consistently difficult and at times down right negative and soul destroying learning experiences associated with my PhD. It's a very risky thing to do I know, I'm really nervous and I worry about the consequences but this shame I carry is not mine.
