Britt | 123 comments I have not seen this mentioned in any of the other topics, but I think it's quite important: instead of choosing one Person of the Year, TIME elected the "Silence Breakers" in 2017.

The accompanying article is worth a read:

Recognition.... finally.

Victims anger would be better served if acquisitions were taken seriously, with rape kits tested and leads followed up, and consequences rendered.

This was a great cap to the year, a push from the Women's March, and a promise that more is to come. Change is happening. #TimesUp
