Reese Witherspoon promotes women rights


Reese Witherspoon continuously promoting the rights of women all over the world. She was in Sao Paulo, Brazil as the ambassador for "Speak Out Against Domestic Violence".

This worldwide campaign against abuse of women is being organized by UN Development Fund for Women (UNIFEM) and the Avon cosmetics company.

The "Sweet Home Alabama" star said, “There isn’t a woman in the world that doesn’t have a friend or a partner who’s actually experiencing some sort of violence against them, so I think although domestic violence hasn’t happened to me personally, I certainly know women who are dealing with this struggle every day.”

She also added that domestic violence, “affects women who are famous, who are not famous, women who have money, women who have no money. This is an issue that crosses all boundaries and it certainly affects everyone.”
