Angelina Jolie debuts with powerful message on Instagram to support Afghanistan
The actress already exceeds more than 3 million followers
Angelina Jolie decided to venture into the world of social networks. The actress debuted with a powerful message with which she provides her support to the people of Afghanistan, who fight against the armed group of the Taliban.
In the midst of the conflict that the population of Afghanistan is experiencing, Angelina Jolie opened her Instagram account to share with the public an emotional letter that one of her fans sent her from the Middle Eastern country.
Brad Pitt's ex has an altruistic past and has decided to boost her work in the conflict in Afghanistan. "Right now, the people of Afghanistan are losing their ability to communicate on social media and to express themselves freely," Jolie wrote.
"So I have joined Instagram to share their stories and the voices of those around the world who are fighting for their basic human rights," she said.
"We have all lost our freedom and we are prisoners again," she added. "We all had rights, [we could] defend our rights freely, but when they arrived, we are all afraid of them and we believe that all our dreams are gone," she explained.
It should be noted that Angelina Jolie experienced the atmosphere of Afghanistan firsthand, since weeks before the September 11 attack, she was on the border of this country and saw how people tried to escape from the Taliban.
Jolie ended her Instagram post by stating her commitment to helping women and refugees in Afghanistan. “Like others who are engaged, I will not back away. I will keep looking for ways to help. And I hope you join me. "
The actress, who has less than 24 hours of having debuted on social networks, already exceeds more than 3.5 million subscribers. On the other hand, since US troops left Afghanistan, the residents of this country have been under the control of the Taliban.
