ABSTRACT
Tarana Burke started the #MeToo movement in the early 2000s, with the movement becoming more mainstream once #MeToo was tweeted by Alyssa Milano in 2017. This entry discusses the history of the #MeToo movement, paying specific attention to Burke’s contribution, the need for intersectionality in the movement, and the resulting legal implications, workplace implications, and the expansion of #MeToo around the globe.
