Sometimes, people call my way of speaking ranting. Why are you always ranting and screaming, they ask. But hereโs the thingโฆthe reason why I rant is because I am a voice for many women that cannot speak out to heads of state, UN officials, and those that influence systems of oppression. And so I rant. And I will not stop ranting until my mission of equality of all girls is achieved.
