Show your solidarity and support for women everywhere on National Girl Me Too Day - let's stand together and say together.
Get ready to stand in solidarity with women around the world on April 7 for National Girl Me Too Day! This day was created by Tarana Burke, an American social activist, to raise awareness about sexual harassment and assault. The "Me Too" movement gained international recognition in 2017 and has since become a powerful force in advocating for survivors and bringing attention to systemic issues of sexual violence. Let's come together on this day to support each other and continue the fight for equality and justice.
