Some big names took to the stage at the Women’s March this weekend, lending their star power to the cause. Here are the celebrities that had us cheering at our computer screens, as they dropped some serious wisdom.
undefinedScarlett Johansson
“I ask you [President Trump] to support all women and our fight for equality in all things, including the fight to be recognised as individuals who know better for ourselves, what is right for our bodies better than any elected official.”
America Ferrera
“We march today for our families and our neighbours, for our future, for the causes we claim and for the causes that claim us. We march today for the moral core of this nation, against which our new president is waging a war.”
undefinedMadonna
“Welcome to the revolution of love. To the rebellion. To our refusal as women to accept this new age of tyranny. Where not just women are in danger, but all marginalised people… It took us this darkness to wake us the f–k up.”
Janelle Monáe
“Continue to embrace the things that make you unique, even if it makes others uncomfortable. You are enough. And whenever you feel in doubt, whenever you want to give up, you must always remember to pick freedom over fear.”
Alicia Keys
“We are mothers, we are caregivers, we are artists, we are activists, we are entrepreneurs, doctors, leaders of industry and technology. Our potential is unlimited. We rise.”
