Oscar winner Viola Davis has said she felt “invisible” in her formative years. The 53-year-old actor said her lack of self-belief stemmed from a long line of women who did not have a voice.
“You know, I came from a story where I didn’t feel just less than or I just didn’t have a voice or not pretty. I felt invisible. I came from a long line of women who felt invisible. And they’re the ones who attempted to throw me an invisible rope.
The How to Get Away with Murder star received one of Glamour’s Women of the Year honours.
In the wake of the #MeToo uprising, she said, it is necessary for the change to come from within. (PTI)
