Today, TIME, published by Time Inc., names “The Silence
Breakers” the 2017 Person of the Year.time.com/poy#TIMEPOY
TIME Editor-in-Chief Edward Felsenthal writes, “The galvanizing
actions of the women on our cover…along with those of hundreds of
others, and of many men as well, have unleashed one of the
highest-velocity shifts in our culture since the 1960s. Social
media acted as a powerful accelerant; the hashtag #MeToo has now
been used millions of times in at least 85 countries…. The roots of
TIME’s annual franchise—singling out the person or persons who most
influenced the events of the year—lie in the so-called great man
theory of history, a phrasing that sounds particularly
anachronistic at this moment. But the idea that influential,
inspirational individuals shape the world could not be more apt
this year…. For giving voice to open secrets, for moving whisper
networks onto social networks, for pushing us all to stop accepting
the unacceptable, The Silence Breakers are the 2017 Person of the
Year.”

From the cover story, TIME’s Stephanie Zacharek, Eliana
Dockterman and Haley Sweetland Edwards write, “The
reckoning appears to have sprung up overnight. But it has
actually been simmering for years, decades, centuries. Women have
had it with bosses and coworkers who not only cross boundaries but
don’t even seem to know that boundaries exist…. These
silence breakers have started a revolution of refusal,
gathering strength by the day, and in the past two months alone,
their collective anger has spurred immediate and shocking results:
nearly every day, CEOs have been fired, moguls toppled, icons
disgraced. In some cases, criminal charges have been
brought….Emboldened by Judd, Rose McGowan and a host of other
prominent accusers, women everywhere have begun to speak out about
the inappropriate, abusive and in some cases illegal behavior
they’ve faced.”
