Beauty, strength, truth

Anita Sarkeesian is a feminist pop culture media critic who produces an ongoing web series of video commentaries from a feminist/fangirl perspective.

She creates out of http://www.feministfrequency.com/ and has been an inspiration to me for a couple of years now, after I watched her videos on women's portrayal in popular movies, and particularly those films that are critically acclaimed/Academy Award winners.

When she was harassed for her project on women's portrayal in popular video games, I knew one thing for certain - she was going to hold her own and rise above. I am so proud of Anita and so thankful this Christmas season that there are so many ways to speak out in truth for what is right.
