Brock is one of the first women to come forward with claims of sexual violence that helped birth the MeToo movement. In October 2017, two days after the story[9] broke in The New York Times, she published an article[10] alleging that Harvey Weinstein had sexually assaulted her in 1997 while they were both in Cannes for the Cannes Film Festival.[11][12] She and five other women filed a class action lawsuit against Weinstein, alleging that The Weinstein Company was aware of his alleged sexual misconduct and was complicit in helping him cover up the behavior.[5]

In March 2018 Brock appeared as herself in the PBS Frontline episode "Weinstein"[13]. She also appeared in the BBC Panorama version[14].

In May 2018 the class action suit was amended[15] to nine accusers.
