Ambassador for equal rights

“I will stand up for children’s rights and I will continue to use my voice to sing about girls and women’s rights and reach as many hearts and minds as I can,” says Paxton Fieles, You Me Equal Rights Ambassador. Paxton is a singer and winner of South Africa Idol.    “Whenever I speak on radio or television, I make sure to explain what it means being an ambassador. I want women and girls to be treated fairly and be given the same amount of opportunities as men. I believe in equality for everyone.”
