Ask and you shall receive! Those words have rung true for 5-year-old Angelou Brown and the team over at She Is Not Your Rehab, after they shared a special message with Dwayne Johnson around domestic violence last week.
The Hollywood mega star has now responded to the video, sharing it on his own IG with a beautiful response in the caption.
The Rock wrote: "Just watched and this one just sat me down 😢🖤💪🏾
A bit emotional watching this 5yr old little boy speak to me.
Angelou,
It’s Uncle Rock.
Yes, I’m you’re “uncle” because of course, all us Samoans are related 😂✊🏾
I’m very proud of you, son.
You don’t understand yet, because you’re too young but just know how courageous and inspiring you are to myself and our AIGA, but now - to the world.
I admire your father, greatly for standing up and creating @sheisnotyourrehab. And to make sure his mom - your Nana - will never be forgotten. Encouraging men all over the world to treat our women with respect, love and most importantly, violence free.
The way you sit in your Nana’s arms as she speaks to you is the exact same way I would sit in my grandma’s arms when I was your age, while said her prayers in Samoan to God, and then she’d talk to me afterwards just like she talks to you.
She would tell me the exact same things your Nana is telling you.
Listen to her. And always remember her words.
You stay strong, Angelou and keep listening to your Nana and your parents. One day you will become the leader of your aiga and also a leader the world will admire.
And tell your sister to stop showing you pictures of me wearing a fanny pack!!!! 😂😂😂🤙🏾
All our alofa,
Uncle Rock and our aiga 🖤
Ps - I have my office reaching out to connect with your family."
This just shows the power that our tamariki possess, a 5-year-old boy from Christchurch caught the attention of the highest paid actor in the world with such purity, honesty, and humility.
Ka pai tō mahi Angelou, Dwayne Johnson and the whole team at She Is Not Your Rehab!
