Lena Dunham is speaking out RE: Harvey Weinstein and the Silence of Men. The American actress, writer, producer, and director is is best known as the creator, writer and star of the HBO series Girls, for which she has received numerous Emmy Award nominations and two Golden Globe Awards.
“When we stay silent, we stay on the same path that led us here.

We don’t want to have to tell stories like this one again and again. Speak louder.”
