It’s Been Three Years Since #MeToo. What’s Changed? What Needs to Change?
It’s Been Three Years Since #MeToo. What’s Changed? What Needs to Change?The greatest accomplishment of the #MeToo movement has been the increase of awareness of sexual violence from the greater community.
The truth is, October 2017 was not the first time in history that survivors have come forward to share their often repeated experiences of sexual assault. But with the help of social media, #MeToo was the greatest global acknowledgment by survivors of the prevalence of sexual violence, as well as the most significant acknowledgment from political, educational, and professional systems that it is an issue that needs to be eradicated.
This macro-shift in awareness marked a tipping point in society where the focus shifted from the protection of the perpetrator to the safety of the victim. Industry giants like Harvey Weinstein, Jeffrey Epstein and Larry Nassar were finally held accountable for years of violence against women and children through cancel culture, where they were revoked of their career legacies due to their previously ignored criminal behavior.
