Summary:
Stand Up! tells the story of
ten
historic female figures
who
changed the world by standing up for what's right, including legendary Civil Rights activists like Ruby Bridges and Rosa Parks and spanning to contemporary role models like Bree Newsome,
who
removed the confederate flag from the South Carolina state house grounds, and Mari Copeny, a youth activist
who
fought for clean water in Flint, Michigan. This inspirational biographical collection offers a wholly original, powerful new voice and approach that make this story so singular, personal, and groundbreaking. Cooper's enlightening text depicts both famous and unsung Black
women
who
took a stand and
made
the world a better place for future generations. Each heroic figure is interconnected by a united quest for equity, and offers young readers a stirring, inspirational call to action, reminding them that they are
mighty
too, and can be forces for
change
when they stand up!
Genre:
Biography, Juvenile.
