“This collection should put that narrative to rest for good. The sheer quantity and breadth of voices in this densely packed tapestry makes it impossible to see girls’ resistance as anything other than pervasive, common, everywhere. It pushes us to look beyond the figure of the iconic girl leader, emphasising that resistance and activism do not belong just to the girls whose names you know but to the countless girls who are pushing back against violence and injustice in ways both small and large, and building communities where they are imagining, fighting for, and enacting a different world for themselves and others.”

“It’s important to read the Stories of Girls’ Resistance, but do not stop there. Support and fund girls-led work. Stand by them.”
