'Don’t forget we are the largest voting body in this country. Let’s make it look more like us.” Michelle Williams delivered a moving speech about protecting a woman's right to choose at the 2020 GoldenGlobes
Williams opened with a cleverly worded statement about being recognized for “the choices [she] made” as an actor and person, before adding, “And I’m also grateful to have lived in a moment in our society where choice exists, because as women and girls, things can happen to our bodies that are not our choice.”
She continued, “I’ve tried my very best to live a life of my own making, and not just a series of events that happened to me — but one that I could stand back and look at and recognize my handwriting all over. Sometimes messy and scrawling, sometimes careful and precise. But one that I had carved with my own hand. And I wouldn’t have been able to do this without employing a woman’s right to choose.
Williams closed by encouraging women age “18 to 118” to not just vote, but vote “in your self interest,” adding, “It’s what men have been doing for years, which is why the world looks so much like them. But don’t forget we are the largest voting body in this country. Let’s make it look more like us.”
