Star Wars: The Last Jedi actress Kelly Marie Tran responds for the first time to the internet harassment campaign that led her to leave social media. Tran joined the film as the first woman of color to have a main role in the franchise. Unfortunately, Tran fell victim to rampant cyber bullying and harassment. Writing in a guest column for the New York Times Tran says, "I had been brainwashed into believing that my existence was limited to the boundaries of another person?s approval." Tran ends her post by vowing to use her position in the entertainment industry to help make the world a better place.
