Dans cet essai coup-de-poing, Léa Clermont-Dion s’adresse d’abord aux adolescents et aux jeunes adultes, à leurs parents et à leurs professeur.es, pour ouvrir la discussion sur les violences à caractère sexuel. Son but : éduquer et sensibiliser pour parvenir à des rapports humains respectueux et égalitaires, toujours en évitant de blâmer qui que ce soit. L’autrice vulgarise les concepts de consentement, de culture du viol, de masculinité toxique et explore la portée du mouvement #MeToo. Elle échange aussi avec des acteurs-clé du monde du sport, dont Laurent Duvernay-Tardif, ainsi qu’avec des intervenants du système de justice et recueille de bouleversants témoignages de victimes.

"#UsToo: How Jewish, Muslim, and Christian Women Changed Our Communities examines the relationship between sexual harassment, gender, and multiple religions, highlighting the voices of women of different faiths who found their voices and used them for the betterment of their communities. Through personal interviews and other research, this book explores the actions of American Jewish, Muslim, and Christian women who broke the silence about sexual misconduct and abuse of power by male co-religionists. Using a three-dimensional, ethnoreligious approach that examines gender, ethnicity, and religion, it addresses the relationship between religion and women's experiences and examines both historical contexts and present-day experiences of sexual misconduct within faith communities. This book will be of key interest to students within Gender Studies, History, Religion, and Sociology, clergy and lay religious leaders, and human rights advocates. Keren"--

Depuis l'arrivée de #MoiAussi et des autres mouvements de libération de la parole, on a assisté au Québec à une succession de scandales sexuels impliquant des personnalités publiques, figures respectées et influentes qui avaient abusé de leur pouvoir, parfois des décennies durant. Michel Morin fait un pas de côté pour revisiter ces histoires encore sensibles, en portant une attention particulière à leur traitement médiatique. Avocat de formation, il se penche aussi sur le fonctionnement du système judiciaire et son impact sur le processus de dénonciation. Sans s'ériger en juge, l'auteur laisse parler les faits, bien souvent accablants, dans un essai qui permet de prendre la mesure de ce qui a été trop longtemps ignoré, voire toléré, et du chemin qui reste à parcourir.

"What can the #MeToo moment teach queers about consent? And what can queers teach the rest of the world about ethical sex? This radical book brings together academics, activists, artists, and sex workers to tackle dangerous questions about sex, power, consent, and harm.While the authors in this volume are committed to promoting consensual, pleasurable sex, we reject heteronormative, one-size-fits-all models of consent and sexual ethics.#MeToo ushered in an era of reckoning and accountability for one powerful man after another. But too often it has defined sex and harm in starkly heterosexual-and often white and wealthy-terms."Unsafe Words" tells a queerer side of the #MeToo story. Not all of us seek safety in sex. Nor do we all believe "enthusiastic" models of consent are practical or appropriate for some queer communities. We look instead to the tools queer communities have developed themselves to practice ethical sex-from the sex worker negotiating with her client to the gay man having anonymous sex in the backroom. We also consider how queers can better respond to sexual violence. How can our communities do better at responding to and preventing sexual violence?This challenge is especially daunting in a world where the only recourse made available is typically law enforcement, a pillar of American racism, transmisogyny, and homophobia.How can our communities imagine different responses to sexual violence that do not depend on the law to serve justice?The "unsafe words" in this volume challenge dogmatic assumptions about sex and consent while exploring tools and language to promote better, more ethical, and more pleasurable sex for everyone"-- Provided by publisher

"To bring more awareness to the revolutionary international impact of #MeToo, The Other #MeToos brings together chapters that look at specific iterations of the #MeToo movement across multiple communities, cultures, and countries. Going beyond gender, the book takes into account the intersectional assemblage of location, history, religion, ethnicity, race, class, and neoliberal aspects that inform #MeToo and its place in local and transnational feminisms. From Egypt, Lebanon, Iran, Tunisia, and Morocco to India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal, and Sri Lanka to South Africa to Latin America to South Korea, Japan, and China to Czech Republic - #MeToo has inspired local movements and hashtag trends as well as transnational and collective hashtags like #MosqueMeToo. Therefore, by making feminism mainstream, it has rendered possible international feminist solidarities unlike any other feminist movement that precedes it. It is critical to document this defining feminist moment of #MeToo and its variants to acknowledge the diversity and multidimensionality of transnational feminisms, along with looking at the various ways they have been changed by the #MeToo, internationally. To that argument, the contributions in this collection examine, analyze, and interrogate the reception, translation, and adaptation of #MeToo in their local, indigenous, minoritized, othered, and/or postcolonial contexts. Overall, The Other #MeToos highlights the adaptation, translation, and impact of #MeToo in non-Western, postcolonial, minoritized, and othered locales to expand the larger discourse and praxes of the #MeToo movement beyond its Americentric focus to explore other feminist possibilities that the movement has enabled"--

"Agressée sexuellement par son patron à l'âge de dix-sept ans, Léa Clermont-Dion décide, près d'une décennie plus tard, de poursuivre l'agresseur en justice. Elle consignera son expérience dans son journal jusqu'au procès. Pendant ce temps, l'affaire Harvey Weinstein déclenche le mouvement #MeToo, et des millions de femmes dénoncent la culture du viol à visage découvert.

In the aftermath of the MeToo movement, during an ongoing pandemic, and in the midst of repeated demands for a 50/50 split between men and women in above-the-line positions, this book analyzes and interrogates the politics of gender focusing on the Swedish film industry, often considered to be the most "gender equal" film industry worldwide. While this gender equality (with a considerable proportion of women behind the camera) is much due to policies carried out of the state funded Swedish Film Institute, women filmmakers in Sweden still struggle with the same problems as do women in other national film industries. These problems entail having smaller production and distribution budgets than men and working in an environment involving recurring scandals of gender discrimination and sexual harassment. This open access book looks behind the statistics and explores the often complex cultural, legal, and political conditions under which women have entered a male-dominated industry and discusses women’s strategies and efforts to promote change while providing evidence on how women’s presence has challenged the industry by provoking critical reactions and introducing new ways to portray women on screen. Using a wide range of different sources (e.g. archival material, laws, contracts, films, biographical materials, and interviews), the book tells the history of the rise of gender equality efforts undertaken by the Swedish Film Institute and investigates women’s possibilities to manage the rights to their work. It offers compelling portraits of pioneering women who have worked in or in relation to the industry and looks at the experiences of women currently working in the film industry.

This book brings together research at the intersection of music, cultural industries, management, antiracist politics and gender studies to analyse music as labour, in particular highlighting social inequalities and activism. Providing insights into labour processes and practices, the authors investigate the changing role of manifold actors, institutions and technologies and the corresponding shifts in the valuation and evaluation of music achievements that have shaped the relationship between music, labour, the economy and politics. With research into a variety of geographic regions, chapters shed light on the various ways by which musicians’ work is performed, constructed and managed at different times and show that musicians’ working practices have been marked by precarity, insecurity and short-term contracts long before capitalism invited everybody to ‘be creative’. In doing so, they specifically examine the dynamics in music professions and educational institutions, as well as gatekeepers and mechanisms of inclusion and exclusion. With a specific emphasis on inequalities in the music industries, this book will be essential reading for scholars seeking to understand the collective actions and initiatives that foster participation, inclusion, diversity and fair pay amongst musicians and other workers.

''À partir d'octobre 2017, #MeToo devient un phénomène mondial, en diffusant internationalement le slogan que Tarana Burke, militante new-yorkaise contre les violences sexuelles, avait lancé dix ans plus tôt. Une multitude de victimes témoignent sur divers supports numériques et médiatiques, reformulant et intensifiant des luttes féministes en cours contre les violences sexistes. À l'initiative d'une nouvelle génération de chercheuses et chercheurs francophones sur les violences de genre, ce premier ouvrage académique en France sur #MeToo cherche à comprendre l'événement. Il propose une approche empirique de ce mouvement mondial. Il décrypte d'abord l'événement #MeToo dans sa matérialité, ses contextes de réception et d'appropriation et s'efforce de montrer comment l'usage des réseaux socionumériques permet d'articuler de nouvelles formes de militantisme ou de renforcer des pratiques militantes existantes en ligne et hors ligne. Il inscrit ensuite #MeToo dans une histoire des luttes féministes de plus long terme et s'efforce de questionner son unité à travers l'étude de ses résonances contrastées dans différents milieux professionnels.''-- Site de l'éditeur

"Au Québec, la vague #MoiAussi qui déferle jusqu'à ce jour a pris son essor les 18 et 19 octobre 2017, lorsque des enquêtes du Devoir et de La Presse ont déboulonné deux géants du monde des médias. C'est avec cet épisode critique que s'ouvre le livre d'Améli Pineda, qui entamait alors sans le savoir plusieurs années de couverture du phénomène des dénonciations d'abus sexuels à grande échelle. À l'intersection des mondes des médias, de la justice et de l'activisme, ce texte synthétise et contextualise les cinq ans du mouvement #MoiAussi au Québec, dépeignant ses plus grands moments et relatant la réaction en chaîne du public et des magistrats. Améli pineda s'appuie sur des articles phares parus depuis 2017 dans Le Devoir ainsi que sur une pléiade d'entrevues menées auprès des protagonistes du mouvement - femmes ayant dénoncé, homme visés par des allégations, avocates et avocats, chercheuses, créatrices de pages de dénonciations virtuelles - ainsi que sur son expérience personnelle de l'effervescence médiatique des cinq dernières années pour trouver un sens à cette prise de conscience collective qui a transformé notre société."--back cover
