Get Up, Girl

Written as part of our work with Christians for Social Action, “Get Up, Girl” was created with Natasha L. Robinson and Shermine Saint-Elien from Leadership LINKS. The song is a joyful call to courage, reminding young women that they already carry wisdom, purpose, and the strength to lead.
