The grand challenge for the 2020 International Conference on Multimedia Big Data (BigMM'20) introduced a multi-aspect analysis of the MeToo movement, using Twitter to analyze five different linguistic aspects: relevance, stance, hate speech, sarcasm, and dialogue acts. The challenge focused on accurately assigning multiple categorical labels to tweets from the #MeTooMA dataset. We received submissions from 10 different teams with 25 participants. The results provide progress and insight into the value of language signals in helping to analyze tweets related to the MeToo movement.
