#MeToo ‘is bigger than one man’: How the Harvey Weinstein trial impacts the movement
Sharyn Tejani, director of the Time’s Up Legal Defense Fund, an organization that helps connect women who have faced workplace sexual harassment with legal representation, said the Weinstein case has certainly been very important in shining a light on issues like the use of non-disclosure agreements, which often keep allegations against powerful people hidden.
“This is bigger than one man. This is about a movement and it has changed how we’re doing our workplace stuff,” Tejani said. “It has caused so many people to come forward. This is bigger than one case and that movement will keep going forward.”
