She told the crowd that what happens in Hollywood is not isolated and encouraged others to speak up and hold people publicly accountable.

McGowan said, "No more! Name it! Shame it! Call it out! Join me. Join all of us as we amplify each others voices.. as we do what is right for us.. our sisters, our planet mother earth."

People we spoke with said they left inspired and empowered by her words.
