ABOUT ME

I'm Sophia Worth, a freshly graduated high school student from Denver School of the Arts. This project was done for my AP Literature and Composition class as an independently guided exploration of something we were passionate about. I chose feminist poetry, and couldn't be more grateful for the opportunity that this project provided me with to explore and read some of the most influential literary works of women activists. I hope this page can serve to inform and inspire.
