Time's Up Co-Founder on the Progress of Women's Rights
Robbie Kaplan, Co-Founder of the TIME'S UP Legal Defense Fund joins The Hive to discuss where the fund stands today and what her hopes are for the future of women empowerment.
Kaplan talks about how celebrities in Hollywood have changed the dynamic around sexual harassment after many have spoken out about their experiences. She says it's directly impacted the way certain workplace harassment cases are being determined in courts today.
Plus, what does progress look like to Kaplan? She says her goal is to change the culture so that people no longer accept harassment. She thinks once we have an open dialogue behaviors will truly begin to change.
