One reason why you are a feminist: My mother is one of six of the most amazing and strong women I have ever known (my grandma and aunties). These women have always encouraged me to celebrate diversity, while giving me the strength to fight for human rights in whatever way possible and to believe in equality because who you are as a person is more than biological.
One book every feminist should read: The Poisonwood Bible by Barbara Kingsolver

Three little birds – by Bob Marley (I can never get this song out of my head)
Bicycle Race - by Queen (mostly because I can’t ride a bike)
Take me home country road (Hawaiian style) – Israel Kamakawiwo’ole
SPAM – by Monty Python (but replace the word “spam” with “slam”)
Across the Universe – by the Beatles
Feminists that inspire you the most: Patsy Takemoto Mink, Cindy Sheehan, Frida Kahlo, Alix Olson, the Nice Shoes, my grandmother
Your favorite shoe memory: I’m not sure, there are so many to choose from. I would say that my favorite shoe memory would have to be P-town 2007. The weather was amazing that weekend, we sang all day in different areas of P-town and the entire experience was unforgettable. We met so many people and the overall experience was priceless and makes me remember how important the shoes are to me.
Your favorite pair of shoes(be as specific as possible):
Simple, comfortable, slip-on sandals as flats or with a small heal
