Moxie
by Jennifer Mathieu
Vivian Carter is fed up. Fed up with an administration at her high school 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 Carter is fed up with always following the rules. Her mom’s history as a punk rock Riot Grrrl in the '90s inspires Viv to create a feminist zine to distribute anonymously to her classmates. As Viv forges friendships with other young women she realizes that what she has started is nothing short of a girl revolution.
