Bollywood's #MeToo

• Bollywood's #MeToo. While the #MeToo movement has been roiling the U.S. for more than a year now, it seemed to be keeping a low profile in India—until now.

Over the weekend, a torrent of accusations ripped through the nation's entertainment industry. The wave began with actress Tanushree Dutta, who described inappropriate behavior on set by actor Nana Patekar, only to be mocked and belittled on social media.

As journalist Rituparna Chatterjee told the Washington Post, that seems to have opened "the floodgates." Among the other men who've faced accusations over the past few days: comedian Utsav Chakraborty, who allegedly asked a teenager for nude photos (he eventually apologized). Chakraborty's comedy group severed ties with him—and at least temporarily banned two other members who are the subjects of separate accusations. Director Vikas Bahl was accused of masturbating on a woman without her consent, leading his partners to close their production company. And—in a move that will sound familiar to those of you who remember the controversial Sh*tty Media Men list—a list of more than 70 men accused of misconduct started making the rounds on social media.

If all of that can unfold over the course of a few days, what might happen in India over the coming months and years? We'll see—but at least for the moment, Indian women seem to view social media as the only real outlet for their #MeToo stories. Sandhya Menon, a journalist who has leveled charges of improper behavior at former editor Gautam Adhikari, tells the Post that rape and sexual assault cases are languishing in the courts, and that the country's judicial system is "completely broken."

• 'She made us strong.' GOP Senate candidate and North Dakota Rep. Kevin Cramer recently called #MeToo a "movement toward victimization," but his comments are most noteworthy for the response they provoked from incumbent North Dakota Sen. Heidi Heitkamp. "And I want you to put this in there, it did not make my mom less strong that she was a victim. She got stronger and she made us strong," Heitkamp told a reporter through tears. New York Times

• Monument women. Women, compared to men, are rarely depicted in statues. When you remove fictional women like Alice in Wonderland from those numbers, it gets even worse. That's why San Francisco just passed an ordinance requiring 30% of of public art to depict nonfictional women. The initiative's first new statue will be of Maya Angelou, a longtime SF resident.
