In a measured yet unmistakable act of courage, Angelina Jolie has revealed the scars of her preventative double mastectomy – 12 years after having life-changing surgery which, for many, reshaped a conversation about women’s health.
The actress has never shied away from using her voice to spotlight key issues, as well as using visibility as a form of power. This week, she does so again, appearing on the cover of the inaugural cover ofTIME France, proudly showing her mastectomy scars.
