MeToo founder Tarana Burke: ‘#MeToo gave me a deeper sense of duty'

MeToo founder Tarana Burke: ‘#MeToo gave me a deeper sense of duty'

Tarana Burke first wrote down the phrase MeToo in 2006, before the Harvey Weinstein case. Then on 15 October 2017, actor Alyssa Milano tweeted #MeToo and the phrase went viral. In an in-depth conversation Colin Murray talks to her about her story leading up to that point and what has happened since. If you have been affected by any of the issues discussed in this interview there are organisations which may be able to help, go to The BBC Action line website https://www.bbc.co.uk/actionline/.
