“Teach her to question language. Language is the repository of our prejudices, our beliefs, our assumptions. .. Try not to use words like "misogyny" and "patriarchy" too often with Chizaleum. We can sometimes be too jargony, and jargon can feel too abstract.”
― Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Dear Ijeawele, or A Feminist Manifesto in Fifteen Suggestions

“Her job is not to make herself likeable, her job is to be her full self, a self that is honest and aware of the equal humanity of other people.”
