Angelina Jolie is a fantastic actor in Hollywood and a lovely
mother, she is also a very active Human Rights activist. She tries her level
best to works towards humanity to make this world a better place to leave.
She acts as UNHCR Special Envoy and harnesses her global
fame in Hollywood to help child refugees in war-torn countries of the world.
Angelina keeps travelling to various countries for her
social work. Now, in her most latest trip, the 42-year-old movie star spoke to
600 children at London's Royal Albert Hall recently with Amnesty International
and Chicken shed Theatre.
As per a daily, Angelina encouraged the children to fight
for universal human rights at the event.
She told, “Children, I need you. We all need you. We adults,
we are a little lost these days, we want you to think that we have it all under
control, that it will all be fine. And it will be.”
“The UN Convention on the Rights of the Child; it’s like
your secret book of laws. And if you can master it, no one can trick you, or
your friends. And you can take those laws and rights and go head on with those
adults who won’t listen”, she further added.
“With the power of not only what is right and fair, but what
is law, you can fight back. And as you grow up, you will have the tools to
protect yourselves and to defend others. It means you can grow up to be
citizens who together can complete the work that my generation will leave
unfinished and fight for universal human rights for all children”, she later
added.
