“This is the fastest moving social change we’ve seen in decades, and it began with individual acts of courage by hundreds of women -- and some men, too -- who came forward to tell their own stories,” the mag's editor-in-chief Edward Felsenthal told NBC’s“Today” program.
At the bottom right of the front page, you can see the arm of a sixth woman who's shared her story of sexual assault while remaining anonymous.

In August, Fowler's legal team filed an amicus briefin a labor law case going before the Supreme Court.
While it doesn't involve Uber directly, the case revolves around the sort of class-action waivers the ride-hailing company forces its employees to sign.
The move is designed to force employees to give up their right to take collective action against their employer, coercing them into individual arbitration.
