“We are living through historical times. COVID-19 has led to many school closures and a shift in how we are expected to interact with each other. Since this month is Women’s History Month, we thought it would be a great opportunity to share some ideas on how to celebrate women’s history at home. I have a Masters in Women’s History and am passionate about engaging the next generation in women’s history and I hope you will join me!“

“At this age, we should be embracing our last few months of college with our peers and friends and embracing all the last traditions of our university. But the past five days have been filled with more chaos, crying, and questioning than I could have expected to endure. How are we supposed to carry on in a time like this? Not only do I feel like everything is put at a halt right now, but now I have genuine fear about my future.”

“Sisterhood isn’t about a blood related tie.
Sisterhood is feeling at home in a room full of strangers.
It’s looking around and feeling strong, feeling no fear to be who you are.
It’s a community of inspiration, women who can lean on each other when they need to.
Sisterhood is an unspoken feeling, one that nobody can put their finger on, something you don’t know till you feel it.”

"I don’t know about you, but I was watching for the commercials and more importantly, the half-time performance. The show struck a dividing conversation regarding women and men and our roles in society, which has left me to wonder, why, as a society, do we feel the need to criticize upon other people’s accomplishments or decisions?"

Dear Khloe,
I am a 21 year old college student and I have admired the hustle and drive of you and your sisters for as long as I can remember. Unfortunately, I have lost trust in your values since your continued support of the Get Flat Tummy shakes, better known as an unhealthy laxative product.

Realizing that I, a teenager, can be a role model for someone else who isn’t related to me is empowering. Seeing the girls at each event come together and express themselves in discussions impresses me every time because they are carrying out LiveGirl’s mission.

Our clothes show who we are to the world. We can show our wild side, our girly side and even our edgy side. We can show our personality through our clothes, we can feel confident and we can feel beautiful. So why do fashion brands not show diversity and inclusivity?

I have been seeing so much about climate change in the news recently and I feel like I personally have learned a lot from it. As a college student I see a lot of my classmates making an effort to prevent climate change in their everyday lives and I’m inspired to do the same.
It seems like yesterday we came here aiming to foster the flames of curiosity that claimed our brains – ready to learn, to grow, to play the game. We became new people in this short time frame; identified passions with which to define our names; sought to remain our true selves, but never leave the world around us the same.
