Humanities Collaboration Discussion of Social Media and the #MeToo Movement

The UMaine/Orono High School Humanities Collaboration held a discussion of social media and the #MeToo movement. Members of the community, UMaine faculty and students, and local high school students, parents, and faculty were all welcome.

The discussion was held in the Orono High School Library and was moderated by Judith E. Rosenbaum, Assistant Professor of media studies at UMaine.

The discussion built on the issues raised by Leigh Gilmore’s Stephen E. King Chair lecture, “Graphic Witness: Testimony, Confession and the #MeToo Movement.” Her lecture took place on Tuesday, October 30th in UMaine’s Minsky Recital Hall at 4:30.
