Where does the “10 Hours of Walking in NYC” meme come from?
The video stems from an awareness campaign by the NGO Hollaback! against street harassment. Produced by agency Rob Bliss Creative, it features New York actress Shoshana B. Roberts. She walks through Manhattan for ten hours while a hidden camera, concealed in her backpack, records interactions. The final two-minute edit condenses these shots to show that Roberts endured 108 interruptions during her walk. Although filmed over several hours, the clip is often shared as a single, raw testimony. It was published on YouTube in late October 2014 as a public service announcement to alert viewers to misogynistic behaviors in streets.
