Angelina Jolie and John Kerry Address Global Refugee Crisis on World Refugee Day
Angelina Jolie took to the US Department of State in Washington D.C. on Monday evening (June 20, 2016) on World Refugee Day to give an impassioned speech, alongside Secretary of State John Kerry.
The actress-director, who is the Special Envoy for the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, called for a solution to the global refugee crisis and spoke out against the “rising intolerance and xenophobia” that’s developing out of the conflict.
Praising her for her “personal leadership,” Kerry commented, “[Jolie has] been working at this for years. This is not a passing fancy for her at all; it is a lifetime commitment.”
