Parent complaints have led to a school-wide crackdown: the school newspaper is taken away from the beloved advisor and shut down, girls are being dress-coded left and right, and the Red Club - a support group for girls with their periods - has been shut down. How will Riley and her friends fight to regain their rights? Through appeals to the administration, investigative work, writing, and pranks/demonstrations. Somewhat soapbox-y, but good and necessary. See also: Moxie by Jennifer Mathieu (YA), Go With the Flow (graphic novel) "It's not ladylike to talk about certain-" "It IS ladylike," I interrupted. "Because these things happen to LADIES. It's natural. It's normal.. It's nothing to be embarrassed of. I will never be ashamed of being a girl." (40) "There's no reason to be embarrassed." "I know I SHOULDN'T feel embarrassed, but I still do." (Riley and Ava, 103) "But I have the same dress and they let me in." "I guess it's not the dress, then. I guess I'M inappropriate." (Riley and Stella, 127) "Well, that's the point, right? To make people uncomfortable and then, eventually, comfortable." (Riley to Cee, 151) "I really thought today would work. That they'd realize the only education that was getting interrupted was ours. That they'd see us all together and realize they couldn't send us all home." (Cee to Riley, 190) "I'm angry. I'm tired. And I'm tired of being angry." (Riley, 200) https://www.booklistonline.com/ProductInfo.aspx?pid=9734201&_zs=v96Ta1&_... sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
