00:08Director Woody Allen was among the topics discussed during a CBS Sunday morning segment on the Time's Up initiative, hosted by Oprah Winfrey.
00:16Winfrey sat down with Reese Witherspoon, Kathleen Kennedy, Natalie Portman, America Ferreira, attorney Nina Shaw, Tracy Ellis Ross, and producer Shonda Rhimes on Sunday
00:26to discuss the impact their campaign has had in the wake of the Harvey Weinstein scandal.
00:30Allen was brought up due to a series of tweets by Dylan Farrow during last weekend's Golden Globes.
00:35Farrow has accused Allen of molesting her, and he has denied the accusations.
00:39In response to Farrow's tweets, in which she said she hoped Allen's time would have been up by now,
00:44Winfrey asked the woman what they would want to say to her.
00:46Rimes responded,

01:50She added in a separate post,
01:59I know that standing with me against Woody Allen is not easy in this industry.
02:03I know that I'm asking for courage and even sacrifice.
02:06But if Time's Up truly stands with all victims, as it says it does,
02:10then that sacrifice is necessary to help convert this moment to a movement.
02:14To those who have already taken a stand and amplified my voice with theirs,
02:17there is a seven-year-old girl inside of me who thanks you from the bottom of her heart.
