A lot of Fedi needs to hear this message from the Black woman, Tarana Burke, who is credited with starting me too & coining the phrase "believe women".
She explains that due to RACISM she never meant to imply that men should be cancelled or called guilty SIMPLY for being accused.
She stressed the need for due process!
To investigate claims but that the validity of claims must be reviewed.

Pretty much from day zero Tarana Burke has CONSISTENTLY shown up to encourage people who follow the movements she started to not to overstate believing claims that are not yet proven or have been proven to have not occurred.
Here's another TV appearance from 2021 and I've seen her making the EXACT same speech every year there after.
Her entire point was that cops & courts should actually take reports and run investigations.
She is a BIG supporter of due process.
