the 21st century heroine. ANGELINA JOLIE

Angelina Jolie is well known as a oscar-winning actress, Hollywood startlet, mother of many multiracial children, a wife of Brad Pitt, the UN ambassador, controvertial woman, and many more. but one that absolute is the fact that she is a woman.

Angie isn't just ordinary woman. she has the BRCA1 cancer gene. turns out, cancer might be caused genetically, you born with this gene that many year in the future, you might suffer for cancer. her aunt, mom, grandmother, and great-grandmother also suffer for cancer, which make her chance to suffer for the same problem bigger. but the difference is, she brave enough to step up and take a preventive movement by did a mastectomy (took both of her breast and in jolie case, replace it with the artificial one). by doing a mastectomy, her chance to facing a breastcancer also reducing significantly. some interview said that in the future, she might do hysterectomy and oophorectomy (removes ovaries to prevent cancer) in the future, and this mastectomy is her first step.

as proud sisters, we support Angie's act and plans, in the past us women only can fight and lose to cancer, now with her bravery to spread what she did to control her life by prevent cancer, she opens a lot of women in the world that look up to her as their role model, a femme fatale, strong woman. she might plays lots of heroine movies, but her true act in the real world behind the lens shows her true power, the power to open our eyes and to move people to back in control of their own life. she is the true 21st century heroine, a strong woman named Angelina Jolie.
