For nearly twenty years, Girls Write Now has been mentoring the next generation of women writers, and now comes the next installment in the organization's award-winning anthology series: a stunning collection of poetry and prose written by young women and their mentors in exploration of the theme of "Rise Speak Change." Distinguished three times by the White House as one of the nation's best after-school arts and cultural organizations, and recently honored by Newsweek in an article on after-school programs that make a difference, Girls Write Now works to empower underserved teen girls in New York City by pairing them with professional women writers who serve as their personal mentors. This anthology showcases the best poetry, prose, and essays from the mentees and mentors of Girls Write Now, and includes a bonus section of writing exercises and prompts for individuals and groups. Powerful and inspiring, Rise Speak Change showcases the brave new voices that are changing the world of literature, one girl at a time.
