LAW & ORDER: SVU [#METOO MARATHON] NEW

#MeToo is a movement against sexual harassment and sexual assault. It was started in 2006 by Tarana Burke and gained traction on social media via Alyssa Milano in 2017 in the wake of the Harvey Weinstein accusations. In SVU’s 21 seasons, the show has always shined a light and spoken up about on sexual violence in all forms. Mariska Hargitay has praised the show’s devotion to victims of sexual assault. “I feel so grateful that we’ve brought something that has traditionally been swept under the carpet… to the water cooler. SVU brought this conversation into the public arena in a way that has been profound, and has done a lot of healing.” Join us in solidarity as we celebrate the brave people who speak up in this powerful marathon. Tune-in to the New-to-USA S21 episode “I’m Going to Make You a Star” at 9p.
