#MeToo Takes Off in China
mp.weixin.qq.com
79 saves · From 2018 · More than six months after the #MeToo Movement took the United States by storm, China might finally be on the brink of its own movement against sexual harassment. It’s a little late in coming, seeing that China’s East Asian neighbor South Korea has been engaged in #MeToo for months. Mr. Jiazhuang, the editor and founder of the social commentary WeChat wemedia account that carries his pen name, explains why #MeToo took so long to take root in China and looks at how the public has reacted to the movement. While Mr. Jiazhuang was hopeful and enthusiastic about the movement at the time the article was published, China’s Internet censors have since quieted down public discussion and commentary on sexual harassment. The last high-profile case that came to light centered on a famous host on China Central Television Station (CCTV), which is state-owned and affiliated with government officials. Many believe that censorship came into effect because #MeToo was reaching too far up the power ladder. Since then, most of the thought-provoking, in-depth analysis of sexual harassment in China has disappeared from the web, leaving only a few generic articles on the subject. Despite – and in light of – this setback, getAbstract recommends this article to anyone who is following the #MeToo Movement.
