In September, Burke released her memoir, Unbound: My Story of Liberation and the Birthof the Me Too Movement, which chronicles her childhood in the Bronx and her path to activism — the first step of which came when she quit the job she was working at age 28. “Leaving that job allowed me to know I can do the work that I want without being tethered to a 9-to-5,” Burke tells Bustle. “I moved to Selma and started Just Be [Inc.], the organization that ended up starting Me Too.
