Patrick Stewart Gives Passionate Response to Question At Comicpalooza 2013
This was my question to Sir Patrick Stewart at Comicpalooza 2013. I wanted to thank Patrick Stewart for his speech at Amnesty International it personally help me put a name to the abuse, sexual abuse in my case, I had experienced in the past. He responded very passionately and the last thing I thought I would get at was a heartfelt hug.
When he embraced me he told me "You never have to go through that again, you're safe now". I just kept thanking him.
I hope everyone who needs help in abusive or violent situations has the courage to do so. There are people willing and ready to help you. There are hotline numbers a little farther down.

Marta - Stop Violence Against Women
Stopping violence against women - Marta Vieira da Silva
Life isn't easy for women -- anywhere in the world.
I grew up in Dois Riachos -- a poor, remote town in the north-east of Brazil. Our family didn't have much money -- My mother worked hard to raise me and my two brothers and sister by herself. We couldn't even afford a football -- if we had bought one -- we would have gone without food.
At the age of 7, I knew I wanted to play football for the rest of my life. But being a girl, the path wasn't straightforward. Everyone from my brothers to the other boys on the field tried to stop me from playing. I was lucky enough to have the support of visionary people who helped me fulfill my dream of being a professional footballer.
So many women don't have the opportunities I did.
Every year, 2 million women and girls are trafficked into prostitution, forced slavery, and servitude.

Sir Richard Branson promises to help end violence against women
Sir Richard Branson, founder and chairman of the Virgin Group, makes a promise to help end violence against women and girls.
Ring the Bell: One million men. One million promises calls on men worldwide to promise to take concrete action to end violence against women.
Men and women together have responded with outrage to recent dramatic acts of violence from Delhi to Cairo to Steubenville. We know that effective laws, courts, and cops are essential -- but they are not enough. We need individual and community action to challenge the habits and norms that perpetuate violence.
Together with our partners in South Africa, Brazil, Malaysia, and more, we will secure one million promises in one year, starting March 8, 2013 (International Women's Day). With men as leaders and partners, we can build a world in which women are safe — and in which all of us live freely, fully, and without fear.

NEW FACE OF MASCULINITY: Eliminating Stereotypes and Adopting New Standards
The aim of this documentary is to open a dialogue and a discussion- from different angles - about male stereotypes and how they affect men and women's lives. Due to embedded prejudice about masculinity in the society, boys now more than ever face difficulties in establishing their self-image and status. It is also important to bear in mind that rigid perceptions of gender stereotypes are linked with all kinds of violence.
As a social construct, redefinition of masculinity opens the possibility of change.
This film was created as part of a joint UN campaign in Bosnia and Herzegovina - "Men UNiTED to End Violence Against Women", lead by UN Women.
