A million pounds from Emma Watson to combat harassment

Emma Watson recently donated a million pounds sterling to the support fund for victims of sexual violence. Together with Felicity Jones, Emily Clark and Claire Foy, Emma signed her letter to the Observer, calling for stopping abuse of power in the film industry and in show business in general.

Revolution is impossible without investments

The letter informs the following:

"For Time`s Up, we collected over $ 20 million, but women need support and financial assistance not only in America, but all over the world. All of them should be able to protect themselves from this injustice. A revolution against harassment is impossible without investments. Therefore, we call for the support of a new fund in the UK and become part of this grandiose movement in the struggle for equality and justice. Using their strength, each of us can help change the situation. "

Everyone can make donations to the fund on the platformfunding platform GoFundMe.

Emma Watson is known for her active participation in many interethnic and feminist movements and, in addition to financial investments, often supports the initiative of open actions against harassment. So, for the Golden Globe ceremony, the actress came in a black dress in support of the movement Time's Up, whose goal is to combat harassment.
