Naming and Shaming the Weinsteins of the Workplace
This link leads to a compelling article of experiences women recount in the post-Harvey Weinstein world, as they navigate sexual harassment in work environments, expose sexual abusers, and spread this information to other women as a means of preservation and protection. The article details how women have formulated more formal channels to out their abusers to fellow women, and also illustrates the challenges in media and music industries to confront the rampant sexual abuse without damaging their careers. Women discuss the accountability needed in order for these information channels of accusations to remain valid, while still keeping these channels accessible and judgment free to encourage other women to use them.
