#MeToo, the transformational movement founded by Tarana Burke in 2006 aims to find pathways to healing for sexual assault survivors from underserved communities. Today it is a viral global movement embraced as a way to point out the prevalence of sexual assault on women. “Time’s Up” was recently created to point out assault and harassment in the workplace. Following the second annual Women’s March for Equality we discuss both movements and how you can support. See links below for more information on the #MeToo and “Time’s Up” movements.
