In the wake of Weinstein: #MeToo, calling out and sexual harassment

Podcast: recording of the Battle of Ideas Stockholm debate

Is #MeToo a valuable way for the everywoman to show solidarity with victims and raise awareness of the broader problems of sexual harassment everywhere? Or does it stir up the gender wars, exaggerating the idea that most men are sexual predators and most women their victims? What does #MeToo reveal about deeper cultural trends?
