Chicago — Michelle Obama has said she is frustrated by the lack of change since the rise of the #MeToo movement against sexual assault and harassment.
The Chicago native, who left the White House almost two years ago, made an appearance on US TV show Today on International Day of The Girl — a day the United Nations introduced in 2012 to celebrate and empower girls around the globe.
“I’m surprised by how much has changed, but by how much has not changed,” Michelle said of the movement.
“I think that is where the fire is coming from. Enough is enough. The world is a sadly dangerous place for women and girls and we see that again and again.”
“I think young women are tired of it. They are tired of being undervalued. They are tired of being disregarded. They are tired of their voices not being invested in and heard,” she continued. — Agencies
