“10+ years ago I was a Program Coordinator for an after-school program. One of my students (I can’t remember her name) was OBSESSED with the PowerPuff Girls. I vowed to use my design skills for good, and present her with a more “colorful” alternative… but I did have an actual job to do, so that project got pushed to the background. After talking about it for years, Damali Ayo (who is a wonderful ‘Artivist’, by the way) posted a chocolaty Patriot Puff Girl on her profile and the heavens spoke… 

So- enjoy my version of the of The Puff! (Ingredients: Sugar, Spice and Everything Right)”

Even though she grew up playing football, shooting hoops and running races against all the boys in her neighborhood, U.S. 800-meter champion Alysia Montano never wanted to be thought of as one of them.
As a result, she started wearing a flower behind her right ear to remind the boys they were getting beat by a girl.
“The flower to me means strength with femininity. I think that a lot of people say things like you run like a girl. That doesn’t mean you have to run soft or you have to run dainty. It means that you’re strong.”
