My Revolution is in stories. The stories we tell
each other; the stories I as an actor tell. The stories we get told. Because there is one big story, and
that’s that patriarchy is a natural state for human
beings. It’s not; that’s a story. We need to rewrite
the real story and the only way we can do that is by
representing women as they really are, as magnificent, as wonderful, as powerful, as compassionate,
as gifted. – Thandie Newton , V-Day Board Member
