It looks like the Harry Potter Alumna Emma Watson is not alone when it comes to inspiring young women all over the world as a beautiful young actress from Game of Thrones has recently decided to follow the same footsteps. Fellow British actress Massie Williams, also known as Arya Stark in the hit TV series Game of Thrones, gave a stirring speech while attending the launch of a new campaign ad aimed at empowering women of younger generation.
The eighteen-year-old Game of Thrones star has become the new face of "Always", a feminine hygiene product company, and has helped the company with the #likeagirl advertisement in New York City. Therefore, Massie Williams did not come to the campaign to speak about how silly it is to think that Jon Snow will be returning in the next season after being stabbed multiple times. She instead delivered a brilliant speech on gender equality that has moved millions of very young women. Her powerful words emphasized that girls are unstoppable.
In her speech she also said that, ""It's time for girls to be free; free to nurture and celebrate whatever qualities and talents make them different. It's the most liberating time moving into adulthood. But that transition should not happen with labels and expectations, but with an open heart and mind... Confidence gives us what we need in life. So build yours, protect yours, fight for yours, grab it with both hands and hold it like the course of your future depends on it. Because it does... The world is desperate for leaders, male and female. It's not about gender, it's about purpose... The Like a Girl movement has done so much to elevate the conversation. Girls, we have to stick together, please support each other... You're allowed to be the most important person in your story."
