Angelina Jolie has revealed the reasons why she joined human rights movement. Taking to a post on IG, the Hollywood star said that she believes passionately in human rights, not out of charity but out of deep respect for them and their families, and all they continue to overcome despite so much persecution, inequality and injustice. According to her, Today 1% of the world's population - 82.4 million people is displaced. That's nearly twice as many as a decade before. Some crises, like the war in Afghanistan, have lasted for decades. Others like the conflict in Ethiopia are more recent. Jolie noted that these crisis have in common violence and denial of rights that leave innocent families with no choice but to flee. She called on people to learn about the plights of such people and resolve ways to help, asking at which point will people be concerned enough to address the environmental devastation, conflict and human rights abuses that fuel these crises.
