‘Westworld’ Star Evan Rachel Wood Goes On Hunger Strike Over Border Crisis

Amanda Prestigiacomo

Actress Evan Rachel Wood announced on Sunday that she’d be participating in a hunger strike over the crisis at the Souther border, where some children are being separated from their families after crossing the border illegally.

The “Westworld” star will not be on said hunger strike until there is action from Congress, though; this was apparently a “24-hour” strike to “raise awareness.” According to People magazine, the fast is part of the #BreakBreadNotFamilies movement, which was launched by the La Union del Pueblo Entero (LUPE), the Texas Civil Rights Project (TCRP), and Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights.
