Editor's note - trigger warning:
In 2021, an investigation by MLive reported a culture of predatory behavior, overt misogyny and excessive drinking. The report stated that one former security guard described the festival as "a sexual predator’s paradise".
According to MLive, "In total, there have been 30 reported cases of criminal sexual conduct since 2013 at the festival, according to the police reports. All of the sexual assault victims are female and at least 18 of them involved alcohol."
"In Michigan, there are 0.5 reported sex offenses per 40,000 people every four days, according to FBI crime statistics from 2014 to 2019. Therefore, sex offenses are about 5.5 times more common at Faster Horses than in Michigan, per capita."
"Objectification of women and macho, hard-drinking, country-boy patriotism with a dash of racism in the form of the occasional Confederate flag permeate much of Faster Horses’ decor, style and attitude."
If you or someone you know has experienced sexual assault, you can contact the National Sexual Assault Hotline (USA) at https://hotline.rainn.org/online or by phone at 800-656-HOPE to talk to a trained staff member from your local sexual assault service provider. This service is free and confidential.
