When Period. End of Sentence won an Oscar in 2019, the film's producer and founder of The Pad Project, Melissa Berton, told the audience: "A period should end a sentence, not a girl's education." Continuing in that revolutionary spirit, this book outlines the challenges facing those who menstruate worldwide and the solutions championed by a new generation of body positive activists, innovators and public figures. Including interviews from people on the frontlines, this book illuminates the many ways that menstrual injustice can limit opportunities, erode self-esteem, and even threaten lives. Print run 1,000.
