The Reckoning

The reckoning has begun. Women have broken their silence and the world is finally listening. The powerful have fallen - more than 100 high-powered men stand accused. To have this moment be a transformative movement in American history, we start our conversation by examining the pain behind the anger, why it took so long for women to speak out, and the price women paid when they "Leaned In" and spoke up.

Host Zainab Salbi and guests Angela Rye, CNN commentator and NPR political analyst; Ijeoma Oluo, editor-at-large for The Establishment; and Nadine Strossen, the first woman to ever lead the ACLU, discuss the topics people are afraid to address publicly, such as the commodification of women and sex, how we ignored the voices of women of color, the "provocative dress" recrimination, whether this is a moment of nuance or zero tolerance, and even the impact of #MeToo on our dating lives. If abuse of power led to abuse of women, how can women use their power to create change?
