In 1975, women at #Cornell gave “sexual harassment” a name. By 1980, the #EEOC recognized it as prohibited sex discrimination. In 1986, the #SupremeCourt ruled hostile-work-environment harassment could violate Title VII. Language became law!!! #SheShed

The term
"sexual harassment" is only about 50 years old, having been coined in 1975 by a group of women at Cornell University.
1975
According to Cornell's archival history, the term "sexual harassment" emerged in 1975 after university employee Carmita Wood approached activists Lin Farley, Susan Meyer and Karen Sauvigne. Wood had resigned after experiencing years of unwanted advances from a supervisor and was later denied unemployment benefits. As the women discussed what had happened to her, they realized there was no widely recognized workplace term to describe the behavior.
Cornell credits Farley with coining the phrase.
Farley publicly used the new terminology while testifying before the New York City Commission on Human Rights on April 21, 1975.
Soon afterward, the group organized a Speak Out in Ithaca that attracted more than 250 women, and Working Women United was formally established in June. The term quickly became part of a much larger conversation out workplace rights and discriminatio

1980
The EEOC issued federal guidelines recognizing sexual harassment as a form of prohibited employment discrimination.
1986
The landmark Supreme Court case
Meritor Savings Bank v. Vinson established that sexual harassment resulting in a hostile work environment could violate Title VTI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, helping shape workplace protections that remain significant today.

“They can take out a city,” Trump said in Grand Island. “Let them take out Los Angeles. Let them take out San Diego.” The crowd applauded.” Trump is the great divider. Turning Americans against each other is all he is good at. He’s Putin‘s inside guy. #Sheshed www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

Michigan families are paying for Trump’s war every time they buy groceries or fill the tank. Gas rose more than a dollar a gallon after the U.S. action in Iran. We could have chosen peace. Instead, Trump chose a war and handed working people the bill. #momsky#sheshed
