Our pals at LitWorld.Org are asking you to STAND UP FOR GIRLS! Today at noon, wherever you are, whatever you may be doing and show respect for women, education and literacy the world over.
In the immortal words of the bard Tupac:
I think its time we killed for our women, be real to our women, try to heal our women, ’cause if we don’t we’ll have a race of babies that will hate the ladies…
Stand Up at noon for the woman or girl who inspires you.
Stand Up for the 66 million girls around the world who are out of school.
Stand Up for all the girls in our LitClubs who so hunger to read and write.
Wherever you are, rally your community, in person and online, and stand up together for your global sisters.
Stand Up because recognizing that everyone in the world has a story is how peace begins.
