Amber Tamblyn defended the actresses who are planning to wear black at the Golden Globes as a silent protest against sexual harassment allegations in Hollywood.
“Rose McGowan is a friend and while I support her kind of movement, I do not support any woman (or man) shaming or taunting the movements of other women who are trying to create change,” the 34-year-old actress tweeted Sunday in response to McGowan, who criticized actresses planning to participate in the silent protest, according to Entertainment Weekly.

“Telling us to all wear Marchesa? This is beneath you, Rose,” Tamblyn added. The Marchesa reference was to the fashion line designed by Harvey Weinstein’s estranged wife, Georgina Chapman.

“You don’t have to support and stand with us, but we stand and support you. You may take below the belt shots at us but we will not take them at you in return,” she continued, before claiming that change was coming to “every industry across the country.”

Our movement is big. And a black dress is just the beginning of the darkness that will be drained from every industry across the country by the time we’re done. That’s a promise.

And we stand together in this fight, shoulder to shoulder, weapon to weapon, woman to woman (and man), body to burned body. And our arms are open. And our hearts two fold. And our fire will be a universal scorch. Heed the mantra: #ChangeIsComing

The tweet thread comes in response to McGowan who said actresses like Meryl Streep and others reportedly participating in the silent protest were “the problem.”
“Actresses, like Meryl Streep, who happily worked for The Pig Monster, are wearing black @GoldenGlobes in a silent protest,” McGowan tweeted Saturday as she referenced Harvey Weinstein, according to another report.
Actresses, like Meryl Streep, who happily worked for The Pig Monster, are wearing black @GoldenGlobes in a silent protest. YOUR SILENCE is THE problem. You’ll accept a fake award breathlessly & affect no real change. I despise your hypocrisy. Maybe you should all wear Marchesa.
