NOTES

"MOXIE es un libro necesario que permite tanto a chicos como a dultos poner atención en pequeños detalles de la vida cotidiana que son sexistas y que sin dudas, contribuyen al sufrimiento de muchas persona. Hasta no hace mucho, un hombre podía mandar a lavar los platos a una mujer sin pestañar. Hoy más de uno lo piensa un poco. Vivimos en tiempos de cambios. Muchos adultos piensan que todo este cambio es una exageración. La realidad indica que, aunque cada vez hay más movimientos de luchas por los derechos femeninos, las mujeres seguimos al frente de nuestros hogares, aun cuando trabajamos todo el día."--Provided by publisher

In a small Texas town where high school football reigns supreme, Viv, sixteen, starts a feminist revolution using anonymously-written zines

Vivian Carter is fed up with a high school administration that thinks the football team can do no wrong. Fed up with sexist dress codes, hallway harassment, and gross comments from guys during class. But most of all, Viv is fed up with always following the rules. Her mom was a tough-as-nails, punk rock Riot Grrrl in the '90s, and now Viv takes a page from her mother's past and creates a feminist zine that she distributes anonymously to her classmates. She's just blowing off steam, but what she has started is nothing short of a girl revolution
