Lisa Merrill, Rhetoric Professor @HofstraU said, “what is systemic is the silence around the violence.” She questions those that didn’t’ commit assault, but “allowed people to be dominated and harassed.” There needs to be a community that says “not on my watch.” #MeToo #Timesup

Panel participant, Mitchell Schare, says he represents “the truly silent victims.” The ones that despite the #MeToo  movement, can’t speak up. How does the public nature of #MeToo  affect those victims of sexual violence? #ImNotAlone #WhyIDidntReport #Harassment #timesup

Panelist Michael Schwartz, Ethics Professor @HofstraU says “there must be failure in the justice system.” #MeToo is a powerful start, but leadership has to fix the issue and bring justice and reform in this systematic issue. #Harassment #Timesup #WhyIDidntReport #WomensReality

Janet Lenaghan, Dean of @Frank_G_Zarb says prevention of #harassment and sexual assault within businesses and organizations can not be viewed as a checklist. Lenaghan says “that is not how to bring meaningful change.” #MeToo #Harassment #feminism #timesup #WomensReality

Lisa Merrill, Rhetoric professor @HofstraU says #MeToo is an “affirmation.” Merrill says the rhetoric around the #MeToo movement blames human nature, rather then seeing it as a systematic abuse of power. #metoomovement #Harassment #feminism #timesup #stories #WomensReality
