Remove Paul Tudor Jones from Everglades Foundation Board
Everglades Foundation
Women United Now is calling on the Everglades Foundation to remove Paul Tudor Jones, a long time personal friend and Weinstein Company board member, from their board and to give the $3,518,167 that Paul Tudor Jones donated to the Foundation in 2015 and 2016 to a fund for the victims of Harvey Weinstein.
The New York Attorney General’s lawsuit against Harvey Weinstein further implicated Weinstein Company Board Members for creating a culture of sexual harassment and victimization of women. The Harvey Weinstein scandal arose in October 2017, when over 100 women came forward with claims of sexual assault and abuse against Weinstein. These allegations go as far back as the 1970s. Paul Tudor Jones maintained a direct relationship to Harvey Weinstein- both as a board member and as a personal friend, continuing to support Weinstein even after the allegations against him had become public. In October 2017, Paul Tudor Jones emailed his friend, proclaiming, “I love you,” telling Weinstein that “everyone would soon forget about the allegations.”
He’s wrong. We will not forget. It is time we hold every single individual who turned a blind-eye to Harvey Weinstein’s misconduct responsible.
Women United Now will do just that. Sign our petition asking the Everglades Foundation to remove Paul Tudor Jones from their board.
