Allegations against TI and Tiny prompt call to support Black sexual assault survivors

#MeToo activists say claims against musicians highlight how Black survivors' trauma has been ignored

Activists with the #MeToo movement, along with Time's Up and the National Women's Law Center, have spoken out in support of Black survivors of sexual assault in light of allegations made against the rapper Clifford TI" Harris and his wife, the singer Tameka Tiny" Harris.

The scandal involving the rapper and former girl group member erupted over several weeks as women reportedly came forward to accuse the power couple of confiscating their cellphones and preventing from leaving as the Harrises sexual assaulted them, or other women, in forced drug binges.
