6 Febbraio: 100 anni di lotta e diritti per le donne
In 2014 a campaign called "he for she" is launching at United Nation by
Emma Watson appointed as goodwill ambassador for UN women.
"he for
she" is a solidarity movement, a partnership between women and men based
on a shared commitment to fight against the persistin inequalities
faced by women and girls.
Emma Watson has spoken about feminism and
fight for women's right that has too often become synonymous with
man-hating ; for the record feminism by definition is the belief that
men and women should have equal rights and opportunities.
it is the theory of the political, economic and social equality of the sexes.
Emma declared herself as a feminism, an umpopular word today when women are choosing not to identify as a feminist.
The
woman says that she was a luckly one because she live in Britain: in a
country where parents don't love less a baby because is born a daughter,
in a country where the school don't limit girl and the boss don't
assume that women would go less far because they might give birth to a
child one day ; but no country in the world can yet say that have
achieved gender equality.
These influences with the gender equality
ambassadors ; they may not know it but they are the inadvertent
feminists who are changing the world.
So is not the word that is important, it's the idea and the ambition behind it.
so
she thinks herself luckly because not all women have received the same
rights that she have in fact statistically very few have been.
In 1997Hilary Clinton made a famous speech in Beijing about women's rights.
Sadly many of the things that she wanted to change are stilltrue today.
Emma
wondered herself "if not me , who? If not now, when?" and invited all
guests to do the same, because the reality is that if we do nothing( ci
vorrà molto tempo )
before women can expect to be paid the same as men for same work.
