Gina Rodriguez is an actress who is known for her role as Jane from the television show Jane the Virgin. She is a big advocate for equality whether it is racial or gender. She has said many times that she wants to be a successful actress in all senses not just as a Latina. She recently worked with LUNA on pushing a campaign for equal pay. She says three things women need to do are "Understand Your Worth," "Change Your Perspective," and "Start a Conversation." Women need to know their are valuable, hard workers and they deserve to be paid the same as men. They cannot stay silent because then they will get no where. They need to make themselves heard if they wish to see a change. She also does a video ad where she speaks of how women need to speak up and fight. She is seen practicing boxing, which just helps push the idea of female empowerment. She looks strong, and it motivates me to want to fight too.
