Where we are regaining a platform for speech,
a platform for truth, a platform for our own experience.
The Vagina Monologues is an organization that helps spread awareness
about any violence against women and girls.
And so for you today, I am here to share one of the most powerful
monologues that really resonates for me and my journey and my story.
My revolution begins in the body.
My revolution begins in the body, it isn't waiting anymore.
My revolution does not need approval or permission.
It happens because it has to happen in each neighborhood, village, city, or town.
In gatherings of tribes, fellow students, women at the market, on the bus.
It may be gradual and soft, it may be spontaneous and loud.
It may be happening already.
It may be found in your closet, your drawers, your gut, your cells,
your multiplying cells, in the naked mouth of tought nipples and overflowing breasts.
