So my friend sent me this last week and I loved it! I think she's a prime example of what a feminist is and why we still need it. This is an Indian actress who was being asked questions about saying that India was a "regressive and depressive" place and she nails the response by saying that it's her perspective that with infanticide, feticide, honor killings, and gang rapes still making daily news that India is very regressive for women and it's the responsibility of every woman to stand up against the way the society perpetuates those behaviors.

Watch the video! She kinda goes in and out of English to her native language (I'm not sure exactly what it is, maybe Hindi?) in some parts but she's really passionate and compelling.

I saw this on Facebook and I was SO impressed by this woman's response and poise. Although she does get quite heated with the interviewer, I nevertheless think she makes excellent points and still manages to seem very informed and graceful given the circumstance.
