“As those who have survived the violence know, the victims of our failed system are not allowed to be angry. You need to be calm and patient … But try to stay calm when you feel like someone is holding your head under water and drowning. “Try to stay calm when you see that someone you love is hurt.”, Jolie said in her speech.
