Say Her Name

excerpt from Women and Men: A Philosophical Conversation

“There are no happy young girls.”

…because we don’t protect our girls. Value them. Listen to them.

We need to, for:

Aiyana Stanley-Jones. Breonna Taylor. Dominique “Rem’Mie” Fells. Kayla Moore. Miriam Carey. Oluwatoyin “Toyin” Salau. Riah Milton. Shelly Frey. Tanisha Anderson.

And so, so many more who were forgotten or ignored.

#SayHerName—all of their names—because in our fight supporting the #BlackLivesMatter movement, we cannot forget about our girls and women, too.
