#metoo #timesup

WOMEN'S MARCH 2018
Washington Women's March

Last Saturday was the anniversary of the Women's March.  Across the globe thousands of people showed up to support the movement.  Lately, women, along with some men,  have come forward sharing stories of inappropriate behaviour in the form of sexual harrassment mostly by men in positions of power.

The media have been all over this.  Find some excerpts of media stories that depict the #metoo #timesup movement.  Where did all this come from?  What are some stories coming from this movement and what have you seen in terms of award shows, talk shows and/or coverage that support the women/men behind these stories of harrassment and the protection of women's rights?

Tell us what you think of this movement and why you think it's important.
