You Won’t Believe Which Celebs Are Speaking at the Women’s March on Washington
The Women’s March on Washington has been gaining inspiring momentum even before one step has been taken on the streets. (If you’re not able to attend, no worries! There are still ways you can be involved.) For those who are lucky enough to be there in person, you’ll be hearing from some incredibly inspirational women, including a few super popular celebs.
Along with activists, authors and scholars who will all be speaking to a crowd that’s estimated to be well over a million in attendance and with so many more watching from afar, actors are also using their star power for a good cause. Scarlett Johansson, Ashley Judd and America Ferrera will all be stepping onto the stage, and we can’t wait to hear what they have to say.
