This month the Rebel Girl challenge is to read a classic book by a badass woman - like Virginia Woolf who said women needed to be given money and left alone (in order to write, but probably generally too lol)

Last month was Poetry Month, and now reading The Book Of The Unnamed Midwife by Meg Elison.
When she fell asleep, the world was doomed. When she awoke, it was dead.

You know the type: the woman who won’t shut up, who’s too brazen, too opinionated—too much. She’s the unruly woman, and she embodies one of the most provocative and powerful forms of womanhood today.

‘Poūkahangatus is a hybridised word of my own invention, phonetically mimicking ‘Pocahontas’. It has no literal Māori translation, though ‘pou’ in te reo Māori means pillar or pole, and ‘kaha’ means power or strength.’ - Tayi Tibble
In the movie, Pocahontas remains in America. In reality, she became an important figure in relations between Native Americans and colonisers, which lead to her leaving the country and dying far from home. 
In the book, she appears in the first poem – ‘An essay on indiginous hair dos and don’ts.’
In 1995 I was born and Walt Disney’s Animated Classic Pocahontas was released. Have you ever heard a wolf cry to the blue corn moon? Mum has. I howled when my mother told me Pocahontas was real but went with John Smith to England and got a disease and died. Representation is important.

“I don't know what an attractive personality is. I like charisma and charm, but what I really need to find is someone who doesn't get on my nerves but is also minimally annoyed by all the irritating things about me.” ― Samantha Irby, We Are Never Meeting In Real Life
