On #MeToo anniversary, leaders focus on inequality

As the #MeToo movement marks its third year since receiving global recognition, founder Tarana Burke is working to make sure it remains inclusive. She also wants the movement to reclaim its original focus on marginalized voices and experiences. She says she sees the path forward for #MeToo through Dani Ayers, a 39-year-old Black woman who became the movement's CEO in July. The year 2020 has seen a nationwide reckoning over systemic racism and inequities that have disproportionately impacted Black Americans. So it's fitting that the #MeToo movement is now led by two Black women keenly aware of the inequality that has long existed in America — something they find both empowering and challenging. Several events are planned to mark the third anniversary, including the announcement of the new leadership structure and a survey of survivors. Burke and Ayers expect that to reignite momentum behind the movement. Their goal is to create a global network of organizations united behind the movement to end sexual violence. Burke said she herself has dealt firsthand with the erasure that Black women often endure when people failed to acknowledge the #MeToo movement was started and led by Black women and people of color.
