by Jo Benoit (Author)
Memoirist shares her eventful life history, which includes being a rebellious daughter, a curious student who loved to learn, an independent-minded person, plus, a social entrepreneur in actions and words.
Jo was recognized as a youth with confidence in her purpose in life. A young woman with a gift for humanity, she set a precedent to make it easier for others to follow.
A sociopolitical strategist, feminist, and trailblazer activist with a focus on the mental health stigma and ramifications of abuses, trauma-specific, plus eradicating our society's inequalities (she coined), intersectionalism--sexism, racism, ageism, classism, youthism, and ableism--an ongoing priority.
Paraphrasing her article on WAC's veterans, I write this memoir because I have something to say that is worth saying. "Self-knowledge is invaluable and Self-advocacy is empowering: And you ask for what you want"
