Halle Berry and Gabrielle Union are two of the names who have answered the call from Oscar-winner Ruth E. Carter to participate in a fun, empowering challenge for Women's History Month.

After Carter challenged the lades to "show the world when women unite anything is possible" and sign and dance to their favorite empowering song, Union accepted the task and posted a powerful message alognside her cute video.

"We have all been through something in this life. We've all fallen and didn't want to get up. We've had our hearts broken. We've all experienced failures. All women share these common truths and we can ALL rise when we stick together and uplift each other. Let's keep this going and laugh and have fun along the way," she wrote.

She closed by challenging all-around social media boss, Chrissy Teigen, who hasn't posted yet.

Union has been on a tear this month, empowering women across all genres and cultures.

Just this week, the actress, who is married to NBA star Dwyane Wade, said she doesn't want to be called a "basketball wife." Instead, she described Wade to InStyle as a “Hollywood husband.”

“How about Dwyane Wade is Gabrielle Union’s husband? There are no stereotypes or terms for men who are married to successful women. It’s only in the reverse,” she added.

Berry also responded to Carter and sang to Destiny's Child.

"Thank you @therealruthecarter for challenging me this #WomensHistoryMonth to dance like I damn well please. This one goes out to the incredible female survivors I have encountered in my life, the women who have the tenacity to live on their own terms. The ones who take risks, hustle hard and will stop at nothing to provide the best life for themselves and the people they love. Let’s keep this going! @ciara @kellyrowland @reesewitherspoon I wanna see what you got!! 🎶 @destinyschild @rikerbrothers #WomenDancingTogether," she wrote.

In her original video that started it all, Carter is dancing and singing to Beyonce because of course!
