{"product_id":"9781529118544","title":"Taking Up Space","description":"\u003cp\u003eAs a minority in a predominantly white institution, taking up space is an act of resistance. Recent Cambridge grads Chelsea and Ore experienced this first-hand and wrote Taking Up Space as a guide and a manifesto for change. \u003cbr\u003eFOR BLACK GIRLS: Understand that your journey is unique. Use this book as a guide. Our wish for you is that you read this and feel empowered, comforted, and validated in every emotion you experience, or decision that you make. \u003cbr\u003eFOR EVERYONE ELSE: We can only hope that reading this helps you to be a better friend, parent, sibling, or teacher to black girls living through what we did. It's time we stepped away from seeing this as a problem that black people are charged with solving on their own. It's a collective effort. And everyone has a role to play. Featuring honest conversations with students past and present, Taking Up Space goes beyond the buzzwords of diversity and inclusion and explores what those words truly mean for young black girls today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"book-contributors\"\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"contributor-item\"\u003e\n    \u003cspan class=\"contributor-role\"\u003eAuthor\u003c\/span\u003e\n    \u003ca href=\"\/search?q=Author+Chelsea+Kwakye\" class=\"contributor-link\"\u003eChelsea Kwakye\u003c\/a\u003e\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"contributor-item\"\u003e\n    \u003cspan class=\"contributor-role\"\u003eAuthor\u003c\/span\u003e\n    \u003ca href=\"\/search?q=Author+Ore+Ogunbiyi\" class=\"contributor-link\"\u003eOre Ogunbiyi\u003c\/a\u003e\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Chelsea Kwakye,Ore Ogunbiyi","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47377565941923,"sku":"9781529118544","price":295.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0741\/7836\/3555\/files\/img_9781529118544_20a226f7-d1cc-4c3c-b738-ce2b7e932f3a.jpg?v=1776564203","url":"https:\/\/graffitibooks.co.za\/products\/9781529118544","provider":"Graffiti Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
