Description
Emanuella Grinberg examines the importance of #YesAllWomen. The hashtag, with over 1.2 million tweets after the first couple of days of its start, outpaced other hashtags that focused on women's rights. Grinberg argues #Yesallwomen is important because it was a grassroots movement and the personal stories are very powerful. She also credits the hashtag for opening up the discussion of the intersection between violence against women and mental illness.
