Hollywood is starting 2018 on an intense striking note.
 

Around 300 popular actors, female agents, writers, and directors have formed a group, against sexual harassment, that is happening across the industry. The team has formed an initiative titled, 'Time's Up', which will be against the actors, producers and other people in the industry, who force women into sex. This initiative has been signed by leading actors and artists such as Selena Gomez, Emma Stone, Natalie Portman, Dakota Johnson, Eva Longaria, Ashley Judd, America Ferrera, and others.

The letter signed by these top actors, states, " Dear sisters, We write on behalf of over 300 women who work in film, television, and theater. A little more than two months ago, courageous individuals revealed the dark truth of ongoing sexual harassment and assault by powerful people in the entertainment industry. At one of our most difficult and vulnerable moments, Alianza Nacional de Campesinas (the National Farmworker Women's Alliance) sent us a powerful and compassionate message of solidarity of which we are deeply grateful.
 

To the members of Alianza and farmworker women across the country, we see you, we thank you, and we acknowledge the heavy weight of our common experience of being preyed upon, harassed, and exploited by those who abuse their power and threaten our physical and economic security. We have similarly suppressed the violence and demeaning harassment for fear that we will be attacked and ruined in the process of speaking out. We share your feelings of anger and shame. We harbor fear that no one will believe us, that we will look weak or that we will be dismissed; and we are terrified that we will be fired or never hired again in retaliation."
