You may have only started using #MeToo late last year, but the movement started way before Alyssa Milano tweeted it. The fight for sexual assault awareness has been going on as long as we've been bringing sexyback, doing Borat impressions and saying goodbye to That '70s Show. Yeah, it's been awhile, but, of course, with the hashtag proving to be a powerful tool, #MeToo has taken on a whole new world, literally. Everyone was affected by the movement. From blue-collar Americans to Hollywood to China and beyond. Now let's take a look at this global phenomenon.

About Kendra Beltran

Growing up in a double wide trailer in the middle of a California desert, Kendra used her smarts to go to college. Only she didn't realize that adulthood was the next stop after graduation. Struggling to start any sort of career out of a makeshift degree, she fell into blogging. Experiencing a multitude of highs and lows on that path...she wouldn't trade it for a typical 9-5 ever. Today she spends her days writing while simultaneously going back and forth between binging Frasier and The Office.
