Wat vertel je je dochters over 2016?

2016 was a year marked by violence, loss, and a relentless struggle for dignity. Women confronted tragedy in the headlines, found strength in community, and claimed their voices despite laws and attitudes that denied their autonomy. Through mourning and protest, they forged solidarity and prepared the next generation to lead, insisting that bravery and truth shape the future. The poem captures the urgency to remember, to act, and to answer to those who will ask what was done when it mattered most.
