The Chibok girls were all over the news. Their names were not.
They had been reduced to a number.
So Lola Omolola built a room where women could tell their own stories.
They came. From everywhere. They said what was happening in their lives. In their own words. To other women who knew.
4 continents.
Some spoke for the first time. Some made different decisions. Some left. Some stayed. Some started over.
Women who were raised to see other women as a threat ended up in the same room. Wealthy and struggling. Educated and self-taught. Lagos, London, Chicago, and beyond. They spoke up anyway.
Women are taught that they are here to serve everybody else. The ones who try to speak get judged, exposed, preached at, or corrected.
We saw each one happen. So we built our own.
"One of the most powerful communities Facebook has ever seen."
The method still works. The stories are still here. The pattern is still here.
Telling our stories was only the beginning.
Now we're ready for the right partners.
