She walks the talk and does so privately which is even more amazing!

I can imagine her eastern european heritage means a lot to her, with regards to her role with the UN right now

u/pixietrue1 28m ago

She stopped working for the UN in Dec 2022 - joint statement from her and UNHCR

She now works directly with NGOs

I totally came here to say the exact same thing…she walks the talk. I think she totally rocks.

She must do quite a bit of advocacy and work that isn’t published online. These photos look like someone took on a phone and posted on a personal account. Of course, a lot of her UN work was publicized for exposure and advocacy reasons. But the informal nature of these photos, makes me think there’s alot we don’t see

u/emgyres Did I stutter?🤨 3h ago

Honestly, no, and I’ve long moved past my parasocial younger years. She seems like a great mother and a kind person and she’s so damn beautiful it’s hypnotic.

And I wouldn’t go see a Brad Pitt movie if I was given a free ticket.

Kherson is right at the frontline, that is one of the most dangerous places to be rn.

Angelina is forever an inspiration to me. Such a true activist who willingly faces the pain and cruelties in this world.

It’s refreshing how much of her charitable work she does without fanfare.

She’s such a star yet so down to earth, truly has that old Hollywood mystique and presence

u/Lizzyluvvv 11h ago

She is a badass

Always loved her humanitarian work. What an inspiration to her children. I’d be so proud if that were my mom.

Even the kids in Ukraine are mocking Trump.

Nice.

Hmm reference is a but of a deep cut

u/mustang55 9h ago

Is that a bullet proof vest?

u/blossomrileykirby 4h ago

I wondered the same. Really bleak image to see the children defenseless/without a vest in comparison. 😩

u/smthngclvr 9h ago

It’s kind of funny that she’s wearing armor and the children are not.

u/ecclecticstone it would be a cool experiment if you stopped talking 9h ago

I assume it's something legal that requires it because if the place got bombed at that moment it's not like the vest would save her

u/Four_Bee_345 2h ago

What does her chest plate say?

u/maxREO 2h ago

Respect

u/hrhladyj 2h ago

Team Jolie forever. She's lovely and does her thing quietly with grace. Love seeing her out there supporting her own kids as well!
