Time for action
summary
Time’s Up raises over $20 million Legal Defense Fund and recruits 200 volunteer lawyers after 300 signatories popularize MeToo; presenters cite concrete numbers — one in three women face harassment in corporate America, ~60–78% in tech, 71% never report, 80% in restaurants — and note litigation wins are rare (~2%) so documentation matters: timelines, emails, screenshots. New tools include All Voices anonymous reporting (phone-verified, encrypted, aggregated) and industry responses like the Fair Food Program that tie buyer behavior to enforcement.
