Summary: | Here’s a gripping story about Moja. At the start of her second year at university she is thrust into the volatile terrain of feminist activism. A storm of prejudice and abuse breaks around her when a first-year student is sexually molested during orientation week. Later, a female student involved in a turbulent relationship is murdered. Although embroiled in her own youthful emotional turmoil, Moja becomes a fighter against the patriarchy that had reigned for generations. Her rise to the presidency of the Students Representative Council at her university gives her the power to build a pedestal of hope for young women to stand on. She did this by working to dismantle the fallacy upon which the idea of male dominance had always rested. |
