Hollywood has officially declared that “time’s up” for sexual misconduct. And they took to the Golden Globes to spread the message. The Time’s Up movement is “an initiative created by several hundred actresses and female agents, writers, directors, and entertainment executives to fight sexual misconduct across the country,” according to The New York Times.

Nearly every celebrity in the room was donning black evening wear and a Time’s Up pin in solidarity with the movement. It set the tone for the evening as a whole, which included several inspiring speeches that advocated for equality among men and women. This doesn’t just apply to the entertainment industry, but to everyone.
