“One million people” will die
Charles Theron delivered statements made on Saturday about immigration, gay, gay, women’s rights and destructive discounts of external aid.
“The world looks like it is burned because it is,” the Oscar winner at the Charles Theron Africa Awareness Party at The Universal Lot said. “Here in Los Angeles, in the United States and all over the world, we move quickly. Immigration policy destroys the lives of families, not criminals. Women’s rights are less and less every day, strange animals and an increasingly erased stage, sex -based violence high. This is not just a policy, it is a personality.
“The external aid discounts in HIV and AIDS have brought programs in my country to South Africa to an absolute stop. All this is not just harm, it is dangerous. People will lose their lives. Many are already unfortunately and scary prices.

Theron Press did not mention. Trump by name, but his administration made the outdoor aid a fundamental part of its agenda.
But Thron said it was not without hope. She said, “What we see also, what we cannot miss, is the resistance.” “There is hope, there is strength in each of us standing, organizing, protesting, voting and caring for each other, and they refuse to accept that this is the new natural. That spirit is resistance, justice and care for each other, and this is the spirit that drives work in CTAOP.
Theron CTAOP was launched 18 years ago to support young people who live in its native South Africa. So far, CTAOP programs have reached more than 4.5 million young men and given $ 15 million to South African organizations.
Earlier in the evening, on the red carpet, Theron told me, “It is completely devastating what will happen … It is less than one percent of this budget that everyone talks about, and when you compare it with millions of people who will die because of this, it is a devastating matter. It seems that this event is a little more important last year.”
Theron says she is pressing regularly on elected officials. “We are doing it a little,” she said, adding, “I will say that there are many people who take the phone and want to listen alongside our understanding.”
The evening also included a direct auction of luxury products and experiences as well as RENE RAPP performance.
