Endorsements
"How to defend ourselves and prioritize our safety when we are trained to accept a variety of daily violences since infancy? The comic artist Helô D'Angelo invites us to establish boundaries and to understand the potency of our bodies: "to ground and to move our feet on the floor". This way, we can move towards a city (and the lives) that we want, with bravery." Carol Ito, comic artist and journalist
