Leslie has taught me that progress is discontent mixed with lots of hope and hard work. Leslie may not identify as an activist, but her commitment to her community makes her the perfect activist role model.  As I became more of an active feminist, I became angrier about the things happening in my community and in the media at large. I found myself in many situations where speaking up was terrifying. But I can’t count the number of times that asking, “What would Leslie do?” has lead me into productive conversations and meaningful experiences. She helps me push through my insecurity and anxiety, it’s nice to know that it’s okay to feel those things. (x)
