In 2006, Tarana Burke was consumed by a desire to do something about the sexual violence she saw in her community. She took out a piece of paper, wrote "Me Too" across the top and laid out an action plan for a movement centered on the power of empathy between survivors. More than a decade later, she reflects on what has since become a global movement -- and makes a powerful call to dismantle the power and privilege that are building blocks of sexual violence. "We owe future generations nothing less than a world free of sexual violence," she says. "I believe we can build that world."

Empathy between survivors of sexual violence fosters healing, challenging the narrative that individuals are defined by their trauma.

Dismantling the power and privilege at the core of sexual violence requires reshaping cultural norms around vulnerability and autonomy.

A collective vision for a world free of sexual violence is built on the possibility of change, driven by movements that lean into empathy.
