“On October 15 [2017], as the number of allegations [against producer Harvey Weinstein] grew, actress Alyssa Milano tweeted a call to survivors of assault and harassment to post “me too” as a status. The response was enormous. Within 10 days, 1.7 million tweets containing the hashtag #MeToo were sent, according to Twitter, and 85 countries had more than 1,000 tweets posted on the hashtag.”
