Over the past couple of weeks, as allegations of Harvey Weinstein’s long, sinister history of sexually harassing and abusing women finally becomes public, the Hollywood producer has – in the most part – remained silent.
Until now.
Weinstein has publicly responded to actress Lupita Nyong’o’s allegations against him.
On Thursday, in a piece for the New York Times, Nyong’o wrote about her own experience with Weinstein.
Nyong’o alleges that she was once invited to Weinstein’s home and then pressured into giving him a massage. The producer then removed his pants and propositioned her, all while his two young children were in the house.
