I would like to thank Harvey Weinstein, Hollywood mogul. Harvey Weinstein just got hit with new sexual harassment allegations. And to those who would dare try and silence us, we offer you two words. Times up. It happened to me too, Me too. That happened to me too. This is my story. On The Thread, we unraveled the stories behind some of the most important lives and events in history to discover,
essentially how one thing leads to another. This season, we moved through nearly a century of history leading up to the Me Too movement. We begin with Gloria Steinham, a leading feminist and activist and an early silence breaker. This is no simple reform, It really is a revolution. Steinham helped transform the modern women's movement, but the events that lead to Steinhem's rise and that revolution where decades in
the making. I'm Sean Braswell, and in season two of The Thread, we will bear witness to a remarkable chapter in American history, one that runs from the casting couches of early Hollywood to the present day. It is a tale of power, glamor, and coercion. It is also a tale of liberation. Steinhem put it best The truth will set you free, but first it will piss you off.
