About this ebook
With the help of new friends, she uncovers the story of two girls who fell in love in 1989—and how their passion helped them fight harassment and the school’s administration. Rev sees deep parallels between what students faced decades ago and the forces organizing against her and her friends now.
As her gut problems get worse, Rev learns that resistance begins with seeking help, reaching out, and refusing to go it alone. She discovers that being herself means building community across space, time and difference, alongside others who have the courage to stand in their authentic experiences.
