And Times Up president and CEO Tina Tchen released a statement after Winfreys announcement.
Times Up is in full support of the survivors who have spoken out about Russell Simmons.
These women are brave.
We support Oprah Winfrey in maintaining that the victims stories deserve to be heard on their own terms.
Too often, black women are silenced, disbelieved, or even vilified when they speak out.
And how important it is for powerful men to be held accountable for their actions.
We assert Times Ups unwavering support for these survivors.
We are in awe of their courage and strength.
