The ‘Me Too’ movement (or #MeToo movement) is a movement against sexual harassment, which has lately gathered momentum in India.
Tarana Burke, an American social activist, began using the phrase in 2006. American actress Alyssa Milano later popularised the phrase in 2017 on Twitter. #MeToo became viral in October 2017 as a hashtag movement in social media to demonstrate the prevalence of sexual assault and harassment.
