Detailing twelve personal narratives of transformation through feminist education and activism, Audacious Voices is an accessible, pragmatic book that emphasizes hope, empathy, resiliency, and solutions in a time of so many entrenched problems.

Inspiring and hopeful, Audacious Voices is a collection of twelve stories from alumnae/alumni of WILL*, a feminist model for education. Each author featured in this book is working, in their own distinct way, to make their communities more equitable - and their stories illustrate how different elements of the WILL* program influence and inspire them to act with such intentionality. Author-activist Courtney Martin writes in The New Better Off that the times we live in may break our hearts, but they don't have to break our spirit; it's that spirit that these stories capture, alongside the power of a feminist educational program that engenders such spirit. Emphasizing hope, empathy, resiliency, and solutions by showcasing the transformative power of inclusive leadership, advocacy, and mentorship, Audacious Voices reminds us that real change is possible, even in the current political climate.

Holly Blake and Melissa Ooten have worked for more than thirty years, collectively, with WILL*, a program that connects women, gender, and sexuality studies with feminist leadership and activism, at the University of Richmond.
