The hashtag #MuteRKelly became big even before the breakthrough of the metoo movement. The fact that R Kelly is now convicted of sexually abusing about twenty women is a result of black women's stubborn struggle, says Tarana Burke, one of the founders behind the American metoo movement. - It was black women who decided to make themselves heard.
