#metoo: The Making of a Movement | All About Women 2018

This week's episode is another live recording from All About Women 2018. It was impossible to have an event about issues facing women without addressing #metoo. For us it was important to recognise that even though it was events in Hollywood that turned the hashtag into a global phenomenon, sexual harassment and assault are commonly faced by all women. We were very pleased to welcome, via satellite from LA just ahead of her appearance at the Oscars, the woman who founded #metoo all the way back in 2006, Tarana Burke. She was joined live at the Sydney Opera House by local legend Tracey Spicer, whose work exposing these issues in the Australian media has been dominating headlines all year. The session was chaired by Jacqueline Maley.

Please note that this episode contains discussion of sexual assault. Want more from All About Women? Find this talk and more on our Youtube channel.
