Scarlett Johansson appeared at the Womenâs March on Washington on Saturday, giving a passionate speech about the importance of Planned Parenthood and womenâs health care, as well as making an appeal to President Trump to work on behalf of all of his constituents. Johansson began her speech by saying that though as a public figure, she likes to keep her personal life private, âI feel that in the face of this current political climate, it is vital that we all make it our mission to get really, really personal.â The actress proceeded to share the life-saving experiences that she and close friends have had at Planned Parenthood, explaining, âThere are real and devastating consequences to limiting access to what should be considered basic healthcare.â Johansson then addressed Trump directly, saying,âPresident Trump, I did not vote for you. That said ⌠I want to be able to support you, but first I ask that you support me.â In the absence of such support, Johansson urges that you âdonât let the feelings of helplessness make you complacentâ in the fight against him. Johanssonâs speech was eventually cut short by a sound outage, but watch its beginning above.
