"A timeless and triumphant story of courage in the face of opposition."
-Foreword Reviews (starred review)
In the year 1974, Title IX had been passed for two years, yet Louisa's high school continued to refuse to fund an all-girls basketball team. After attending a speech by Gloria Steinem, Louisa gained a profound realization: "The truth will set you free, but first, it will piss you off." Determined to take action, she approached her principal with the request to start a girls' team. However, her efforts were met with fierce opposition from male coaches at her school, who resorted to lies and dismissals, labeling her as "out of line" in her pursuit of a fair chance to be an athlete.
No Stopping Us Now is a captivating tale that revolves around the journey of finding one's voice through the joys of sports, love, and the unbreakable bond of sisterhood. Drawing from the author's personal experiences, this novel offers a poignant examination of the courage it takes to stand up for what is right.
The story is particularly resonant as we commemorate the 50th anniversary of Title IX, a landmark legislation that paved the way for greater gender equality in sports. No Stopping Us Now serves as a tribute to the resilience and determination of those who fought for equal opportunities, and it reminds us of the ongoing struggle for inclusivity and fairness in all aspects of life.
Whether you're a sports enthusiast, a fan of LGBTQ+ fiction, or simply seeking a story that inspires courage and empowerment, No Stopping Us Now is a must-read that will leave you inspired and uplifted.
