Stop Telling Women to Smile: Stories of Street Harassment and How We're Taking Back Our Power expands upon the themes of my public art project Stop Telling Women to Smile. Through personal narrative, interviews, and cultural analysis, the book examines how street harassment shapes people's experiences of public space across race, gender, sexuality, religion, body size, and identity.

By weaving together the stories of women and non-binary people with my own experiences, the book explores questions of visibility, power, safety, and the right to move through the world on one's own terms.
