#Respect Meryl Streep

#Respect. "There was one performance this year that stunned me. It sank its hooks in my heart. Not because it was good, there was nothing good about it, but it was effective and it did its job."

"It was that moment when the person asking to sit in the most respected seat in our country imitated a disabled reporter. Someone he outranked in privilege, power and the capacity to fight back."

"Disrespect invites disrespect, violence incites violence. And when the powerful use their position to bully others we all lose."

-- Meryl Streep in her acceptance speech at the Golden Globe awards ceremony .
