You select a world where your body will never be cut. Where you're safe. Where you can learn, grow, become who you're meant to be.
You leave the Lobby. You enter freedom.
You wake up in your new world. Your body is whole. Untouched. Safe.
The threat is gone. Forever.
You enter a classroom. As a student. Not as a future bride. Not as property. As a
student
.
The teacher welcomes you. The other students smile. You have a desk. Books. A future.
You're learning. You're allowed to learn.
One year ago I was hours away from being mutilated. Married off to a man 40 years older. My future: violence, childbirth until death, no education, no choice.
Today I'm 15. I'm in 9th grade. Top of my class in science. I speak three languages now. I have friends. I have dreams.
I want to be a doctor. They tell me I can. They help me study. They believe in me.
My body is mine. My future is mine. My LIFE is mine.
One button press. One moment of courage. Everything changed.
To the girls still there: Press the button. Run. We're here. We're safe. We're waiting for you.
Your body is whole.
Your future is open.
Your life is yours.
This is liberation.
