Ashley Nicolette -A Story Like Mine-2018 Women march

Halsey’s Powerful Speech At NYC Women’s March: “I don't really know how to do a speech unless it rhymes, so I'm going to do a little poem for you guys,” https://youtu.be/NjRnyFBexq0 Ashley Nicolette Frangipane born September 29, 1994), known professionally as Halsey, is an American singer, actress and songwriter. Her stage name is a reference to the Halsey Street station of the New York City Subway in Brooklyn, and an anagram of her first name. Gaining attention from self-released music on social media platforms, Halsey was signed by Astralwerks in 2014. She toured with acts such as The Kooks and Imagine Dragons to promote her debut extended play, Room 93 (2014). Her debut studio album, Badlands (2015), was certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). Four singles were released from the album, all of which achieved minor commercial success. At seventeen years old, Halsey was diagnosed with bipolar disorder, following a suicide attempt that led to a seventeen-day stint in a psychiatric hospital.[15][76] Halsey participated in the mental health and suicide prevention awareness campaign called "I'm Listening", which was hosted by radio network Entercom and broadcast live on September 10, 2017.[6] On January 20, 2018, in New York City, Halsey delivered a speech to more than 200,000 protestors at the Women's March. Instead of a traditional speech, Halsey performed a five-minute poem titled "A Story Like Mine", in which she told personal stories of sexual assault and violence throughout her life. Her personal narrative included accompanying her best friend to Planned Parenthood after she had been raped, her personal account of sexual assault by neighbors and boyfriends, and women sexually assaulted by Olympic doctor Larry Nassar. Halsey stated, "Listen, and then yell at the top of your lungs, be a voice for all those who have prisoner tongues." Halsey read, "What do you mean this happened to me? You can't put your hands on me. You don't know what my body has been through. I'm supposed to be safe now. I've earned it." She completed her speech by requesting all—"Black, Asian, poor, wealthy, trans, cis, Muslim, Christian"—sexual assault victims to listen and support each other. AJ Willingham of CNN.com opined in a headline that "Halsey's Women's March speech moved people around the world.
