James Haven Talks about Family and Activism

by KD Griffin

Angie’s brother, James Haven, gushed about the Jolie-Pitt kids in a recent interview with People Magazine.

“They’re unbelievable,” Haven, 34, an activist for AIDS and human rights causes, tells Marie Claire in November’s issue. “Zahara likes to hide from Angie, who always knows, right when she walks in the room, that Z’s playing.”

Awww that’s cute. James also says that Pax has managed to say his name, “He didn’t know any English, and I hadn’t heard him say a word yet, so I wasn’t expecting it.’

James, an activist himself, is currently serving as a board member of Artivist, a group that merges art and activism. The organization is sponsoring an L.A. film festival from Nov. 8 - 9 that will feature films on Human Rights, Children’s Advocacy, Environmental Preservation, and Animal Rights.

He credits his sister for helping sparking is interest in helping others. “Angie was the catalyst. She’d say, ‘I just heard this is going on in Darfur …’ and I’d want to be involved.”

I just glanced at the website and saw films about everything from a beauty pageant for women with HIV/AIDS to an investigation of a notorious puppy mill owner.

If I lived anywhere near LA I’d be there every day and ever night. The subject matter is vast and brings light to all kinds of injustice in the world. Looks like big brother is following little sister this time around. Good for him. I applaud the work he’s doing.
