Emma Watson, known for her role in the popular Harry Potter movies, was named a United Nations Women Goodwill Ambassador earlier this summer. The actress gave an impassioned speech at the U.N. headquarters in New York this past weekend to launch the “HeForShe” campaign which aims to galvanize one billion men and boys as advocates for ending the inequalities that women and girls face globally. Watson highlighted the role men can take in ending gender inequality, stressing a message of inclusiveness: Men, I would like to take this opportunity to extend your formal invitation. Gender equality is your issue, too. #HeForShe https://facebook/heforshe https://twitter/HeforShe
