Many celebrities and women became a part of the #MeToo movement sharing their stories and even pressing charges against their abusers for example in 2013 singer-songwriter Taylor Swift took a photo with a Colorado radio DJ after an interview. During that photo, Swift says, DJ David Mueller reached under her skirt and grabbed her rear end. Swift privately reported the incident to the station at which Mueller worked, and he was fired. Mueller then sued Swift for defamation; she countersued for a symbolic $1 and won. Swift refused to be bullied on the stand when asked if she felt guilty about Mueller losing his job, she said, “I’m not going to let you or your client make me feel in any way that this is my fault. Here we are years later, and I’m being blamed for the unfortunate events of his life that are the product of his decisions—not mine.” Like many of the women interviewed for the 2017 Person of the Year issue, Swift would not accept blame for the abuse she experienced. Her testimony marked one of several major milestones in the conversation around sexual harassment in 2017.]]> 2022-05-04 21:24:25 UTC https://padlet.com/fatimaadnan2/aop36ky8cs32t2zr/wish/2170609896 fatimaadnan2 https://padlet.com/fatimaadnan2/aop36ky8cs32t2zr/wish/2170612066 Nasa astronauts Jessica Meir and Christina Koch performed the 221st spacewalk only this time the space station assembly support marketed the first all-women spacewalk.
