#MeToo movement originator Tarana J. Burke took a well-deserved step into the spotlight on her new cover of HANNAH Magazine.

Burke's work with the #MeToo movement landed her recognition as a "Silence Breaker" in TIME Magazine's person of the year issue. Although she was not seen on the actual cover of the publication, her work has not gone unnoticed. For that reason, she now has her own cover, and it's long overdue.

So…I’ve been nervous about this for weeks. @qimmahsaafir of @hannah.magazine is a visionary who deeply cares about the life, livelihood and well-being of sisters. Her and her team treated me so well on this shoot and the pictures are unlike any I’ve ever seen of myself, but I was still nervous because, well, it’s hard to see what folks who care about you see – but easy to agree with hateful folks. This took a LOT for me. I actually do love it. I love all of the pictures. I hope you all order the magazine and support this sister too because she is putting in work. Thank you, @qimmahsaafir for helping me to see myself through different eyes even for a little while. Link to order the magazine in the bio.

"So…I’ve been nervous about this for weeks," Burke wrote in an Instagram post on Thursday. "@Qimmahsaafir of @hannah.magazine is a visionary who deeply cares about the life, livelihood and well-being of sisters.

Ain't that the truth. However, we're so glad Burke has been able to ignore the haters and realize her beauty.

"This took a LOT for me," she continued. "I actually do love it. I love all of the pictures. I hope you all order the magazine and support this sister too because she is putting in work. Thank you, @qimmahsaafir for helping me to see myself through different eyes even for a little while."
