As someone who has been actively addressing the problem of gender violence for 28 years–as an educator, an activist, and a scholar, I have been closely watching the #MeToo phenomenon that began on social media last fall. At times, I’ve felt a sense of relief and optimism that we are witnessing a cultural shift–finally, victims are being heard and their harassers are being held accountable. (If you haven’t read the Time magazine “Person of the Year” article (Links to an external site.), I highly recommend it.) At other moments, I’ve wondered if anything will really change; after all, feminists have been shouting “me too” since the second wave of the women’s movement in the 1960s and 70s. I’ve been working on this issue for 28 years, but there were women working on it TWENTY YEARS BEFORE I began. Are powerful men (e.g. Harvey Weinstein, Matt Lauer, Louis CK, Kevin Spacey, etc.) being held accountable now only because the companies that employed them wanted to avoid scandals and didn’t want to lose money? And what, if anything, do the recent Ford-Kavanaugh sexual assault hearings tell us about the #MeToo movement? I’d love to know your thoughts on this topic. What do you think about #MeToo? Is it the start of a revolution? Or just an empty slogan? Do you think #MeToo can move beyond raising awareness and create real social change around the problems of sexual harassment and sexual assault?
