ABOUT THIS EPISODE
In this episode, we reflect on my time at the SVRI Forum 2024, where we had the distinct privilege of collaborating with Tarana Burke, the visionary founder of the #MeToo movement, and connecting with Shesheena A. Bray, Director of Programmes and Partnerships, who led wellness initiatives at the event.
In our conversation, we tour the foundation of the #MeToo Movement and it’s unique perspectives on healing and wellness as essential pillars, not only for the team but also for every survivor. Shesheena recounts the early mission of the #MeToo movement, launched in 2006 to empower and support Black women and girls who are survivors of sexual violence. She highlights the movement’s ongoing commitment to resourcing survivor healing and wellbeing through tools like the Survivors Sanctuary online platform.
