Angelina Jolie has said that rape is not a woman problem it's a crime against humanity.
The 'Maleficent' actress, who opened up how privileged she was working with female rape activists, said that everywhere she went, rape was the silent killer, but it became quickly clear to her that these women were not just the collateral damage of war, the Mirror reported.
