When things escalate in real life, the principal shuts the club down.
But with such positive support, the club is also targeted by trolls.
They post their work online--poems, essays, videos of Chelsea performing her poetry, and Jasmine\'s response to the racial microaggressions she experiences--and soon they go viral.
Jasmine and Chelsea are best friends on a mission--they\'re sick of the way women are treated even at their progressive NYC high school, so they decide to start a Women\'s Rights Club. --Julie Murphy, New York Times bestselling author of Dumplin\' Newbery Honor and Coretta Scott King Award-winning author Renée Watson teams up with poet Ellen Hagan in this YA feminist anthem about raising your voice. --Brendan Kiely, New York Times bestselling co-author of All American Boys and Tradition Timely, thought-provoking, and powerful. --Laurie Halse Anderson, New York Times bestselling and award-winning author of Speak An extraordinary story of two indomitable spirits.
