Circling back to Angelina Jolie talking about her white privilege, according to Harper’s Bazaar UK, the actress in the interview stated, “A system that protects me but might not protect my daughter or any other man, woman or child in our country based on skin color is intolerable.” She continued, “We need to progress beyond sympathy and good intentions to laws and policies that actually address structural racism and impunity. Ending abuses in policing is just the start. It goes far beyond that, to all aspects of society, from our education system to our politics.”
