Time's Up pin, made of enameled metal printed with the logo for the Time's Up movement. This pin was owned and worn by a Broadway theatre publicist. Time's Up refers to a coalition of organizations and social movement founded in 2018 in response to several well-publicized incidents of sexual harassment in the entertainment industry. The Time's Up Legal Defense Fund raised tens of millions of dollars for victims and organized volunteer lawyers to support lawsuits seeking restitution for sexual abuse in the industry.
