Actress Angelina Jolie joined social media platform Instagram on Saturday. The 46-year-old actress revealed that she aims at sharing the "stories and the voices of those across the globe who are fighting for their basic human rights" through the platform. In her very first post, Angelina Jolie shared a picture of a handwritten letter that she received from a teenage girl living in the Taliban ruled Afghanistan. In the letter, the Afghan girl has poured in her emotions of fear and helplessness with the Taliban being back to power in the war-torn country. "20 years and again we have no rights. The life of all of us is dark. We all lost our freedom, and we are imprisoned again," an excerpt from the letter read. Sharing the letter on Instagram, Angelina Jolie wrote: "This is a letter I was sent from a teenage girl in Afghanistan. Right now, the people of Afghanistan are losing their ability to communicate on social media and to express themselves freely." She added: "So I've come on Instagram to share their stories and the voices of those across the globe who are fighting for their basic human rights."More Related News
