Legal work with the #MeToo Movement

The #MeToo movement arose from the legal system’s systematic failure to protect women in issues regarding sexual harassment and abuse. Through the years, the movement has suffered defeats, but definitely has made some major achievements that have revolutionized modern feminism. The movement has brought down 201 powerful men on sexual assault or abuse charges, and nearly half of their replacements are women. On January 1, 300 actresses, writers, and directors launched the Time’s Up Legal Defense Fund. This initiative funds legal assistance for those who suffer harassment or abuse at work. Through the years, the movement has helped many suffering women, and these accomplishments would not be possible without the vast support of movement.
