Patrick Stewart speaks about Violence v.s. Women

Patrick Stewart, 73, is deeply involved in work that helps women who are victims of violence. At
the recent Texas Comicpalooza, in reply to a question, he talked about
how his father’s violence towards his mother inspired him. He also
explains how he only recently discovered that his father suffered from
PTSD.
“I do what I do in my mother’s name, because I couldn’t help her then. Now I can.”
