MeToo

“An accessible and thorough interrogation of the media, rape culture, and MeToo. The book does a fantastic job of detailing rape culture (as it is conceived by many feminist theorists and activists) as well as outlining, in a really impressive way, the complexity of the MeToo movement.”
Catherine Rottenberg, University of Nottingham

“Laying out with great clarity what needs to be done to remove rape culture and its residue from the media, this insightful, thoughtful, and generative volume demonstrates why this eradication is a social justice issue that should matter to all.”
Barbie Zelizer, Raymond Williams Professor of Communication, University of Pennsylvania

“Durham moves our understanding of rape culture into the twenty-first century with this compelling examination of the MeToo movement. The book will provoke discussions across disciplines and audiences.”
Carolyn Byerly, Chair of Communication, Culture, and Media Studies, Howard University

“This book reminds us that speaking out is powerful, and that whether we are survivors, advocates, journalists, or bystanders, we can all be silence breakers.”
International Journal of Communication

“Durham has deftly combined the rape myths with the critique of the Metoo movement from a historical feminist standpoint, which only makes the book more accessible to the readers.”
Media Practice and Education

“Gender and media scholar Meenakshi Gigi Durham has delivered a clearly written and confronting, yet engaging, text where she uses the media as a framework through which to discuss and analyse the international #MeToo movement.”
Australian Journalism Review

“It’s a timely and challenging book that offers a unique insight into the role and power of the media as well as the state of contemporary gender relations.”
