Actor and activist Alyssa Milano spent her Sunday protesting President Donald Trump's pick for Supreme Court, Brett Kavanaugh, wearing a Handmaid's Tale-style red and white outfit to make her point.

Milano posted a photo to social media of herself sporting the signature red cloak and white bonnet worn by handmaids in the popular novel-turned-TV series, while carrying a sign that read: "Never Kavanaugh, never Gilead" at a protest in Phoenix, Arizona.

Gilead refers to the fictitious Republic of Gilead regime that rises to power in the U.S. and forces fertile women, called "handmaids" into becoming child-bearers for the infertile elite in the dystopian story.
