Opinion: Celebrity activism must move past virtue-signaling
Original: Opinion: Celebrity activism needs to evolve beyond endless virtue-signaling

The writer calls on famous figures to evolve their advocacy, backing causes with sustained action and real impact instead of symbolic gestures designed mainly to burnish their public image.
