Rowan Blanchard is definitely one of the bright young voices to watch, and when she was asked to give her opinion on white feminism and inclusivity, she gave a pretty amazing answer.
Back in June, 13-year-old Rowan spoke about gender equality at the UN Women U.S National Committee Annual Conference, and now she’s taken to Instagram to share some insight with her 2.4 million followers.
The actress shared her point of view in series of Instagram posts, saying; ‘I have made a very big point at making sure my personal feminism includes everyone- and educating myself and discussing these topics have really helped.’
Rowan eloquently addressed a wide range of issues including police brutality, the differences between the experiences of black and white women and Amandla Stenberg being labelled as an ‘angry black girl’ after her response to Kylie Jenner’s cornrows.
It goes without saying that Rowan’s essay got a lot of attention for how well she explained such huge issues, and it even caught Emma Watson’s eye:
Our thoughts exactly.
