The #MeToo Movement and Cultural Change

Episode 22 Published 11 months ago
Description

This episode explores the powerful rise of the #MeToo movement, from its origins with activist Tarana Burke to its global explosion in 2017 after revelations of abuse by high-profile figures. It examines how the movement gave voice to millions of survivors, igniting a global reckoning with sexual harassment, abuse, and gender-based violence.

We look at its wide-reaching impact on workplace policies, legal systems, and popular culture, as well as the important conversations it sparked about power, consent, and accountability. While challenges remain—particularly for marginalized communities—the movement continues to evolve, urging ongoing reform, education, and cultural change to create safer and more equitable environments.
