Justin Baldoni is a male actor who has a channel on YouTube and began a short series of videos presenting other men of varying backgrounds and identities tackling current social issues. What I loved about this video in particular is the dialogue being exchanged amongst men. With regard to the MeToo movement, I tend to consume media through avenues that are heavily if not completely female based with women in mind. I enjoy viewing and listening to women everyday brave the social terrain within our society by speaking on and to sexual harassment and sexual assault as well. More over, I think it's very refreshing to witness a table of men speak about the topic and its many layers from their perspectives. For every cause there is usually an ally and many times it is found in those who benefit from an oppressed or marginalized group. This video and the like that Justin Baldoni has hosted for me proves that there are men who get it and also put forth the effort to make a change for the betterment of a women’s life experience.
