is an actress, activist, producer, and former singer, and the “Charmed” star might add politician to her plate. I want that person where I’m like, ‘Can you talk to me about immigration in a way that I don’t have to go through so much research?’ “I would love it in that respect, but I don’t even know what trajectory looks like. Do I start on a state, local level? It’s something that I think about, for sure.” Milano also sounded off on issues related to #MeToo, white privilege, and what to do about men who have sexually harassed or abused people but continue to find work. Milano acknowledged that it “might be an unpopular thing to say,” but that fighting for women’s rights includes “figuring out what the next step is for men that have been accused of sexual misconduct and abuse.” “Those men aren’t just going to go away. It’s OK to want the same thing but to go about it in a different way.” She also said she’s unafraid of criticism of women’s movements, and that it can actually be productive. “I get that question about #MeToo all the time: ‘What do you think about the backlash of the #MeToo movement?” Milano said. That’s where we keep the conversation going.” When SHE Media CEO and moderator Samantha Skey asked Milano about pushback against #MeToo and Time’s Up for being too elite and white, Milano acknowledged the responsibility for activists to fight for marginalized and disenfranchised women. “It really comes down to those of us with privilege and those of us with white privilege to take care of other people that don’t have a voice.” When it comes to achieving equity across industries, Milano said people need to do just one simple thing. You have to hire more women, you’ll have to promote more women into positions of power,” she said.
