书籍简介

以乌干达的一个村庄为背景，莉莉安学会了缩小自己，以适应别人对女孩的看法。 在她的村庄里，女孩并不意味着比她的兄弟聪明。 女孩不应该去上学、享受自己的身体或决定嫁给谁。 尤其是如果她很穷的话。

《我是改变》的灵感来自乌干达年轻女性，并与年轻女性协商编写，解决了女性生殖器切割这个难题，这是一个悲剧但赋予力量的故事，讲述了一个年轻女孩如何找到自己的声音和为变革而奋斗的力量。

Set in a Ugandan village, Lilian has learned to shrink herself to fit other people’s ideas of what a girl is. In her village a girl is not meant to be smarter than her brother. A girl is not meant to go to school or enjoy her body or decide who to marry. Especially if she is poor.

Inspired by and written in consultation with young Ugandan women, and addressing the difficult subject of FGM, I Am Change is the tragic but empowering story of how a young girl finds her voice and the strength to fight for change.
