Susan Still (women's rights activist)
Susan Still (born 1964, in New York state) is an American women's rights activist who escaped a decade-long abusive relationship with former husband Ulner Lee Still in 2003.
==Life and domestic abuse==
Susan Still was born in 1964 in a New York middle-class family. She attended college in Buffalo, New York where she met blues guitarist Ulner Lee Still and fell in love. They married a few years later while Susan supported the family financially by working at a health insurance company. At first, Ulner was controlling but not particularly violent or abusive. According to Susan, he had a will to dominate and the power to brainwash.〔( Inside the Hotdog Factory ), Tuesday, May 8, 2007, O-ploitation, Blogger]〕 Her husband eventually isolated Susan from her family. However, due to her husband's proficiency at manipulation and control, and its gradual increase, Susan was slow to realize the high level of danger in which her husband's domineering behaviors placed her. After giving birth to their oldest children, a boy and a girl, Susan had to quit work and stay home to take care of them. After Susan and Ulner got married, he became emotionally and verbally abusive for 12 years and in 2001, Ulner also became physically abusive after she forgot an item he wanted when she was grocery shopping.
In 2002, the family's financial situation continued to worsen as they had another child and their careers became less stable. Susan began working again to singlehandedly support the family while Ulner became increasingly abusive. He was also jealous of men at her workplace. The long-term marriage became shaky and Ulner began to threaten Susan more frequently. Ulner instructed his sons and daughter to call their mother "white slut" (though she is in fact biracial) and on one occasion ordered his son to tape him beating her. He would later play the audio tapes to the family during dinner, occasionally pausing, pointing out Susan's flaws, mocking her while justifying his brutal behavior. Employer Jasper soon noticed bruises on Susan's face that she disguised as accidental injuries. Finally in May 2003, Lynn encouraged Susan to escape the household with her two sons after discovering a farewell letter at her office drawer containing words like "If anything should happen to me or if I should turn up missing, it is possible my husband was involved".
