Ending Strong
It was on February 13, 2019, that Julia finally completed her 100 days of awareness. She then uploaded a picture of herself alongside some staff members who joined her cause by keeping the same outfits on for the remaining three days of Julia’s challenge as a sign of solidarity. Julia was so happy and impressed to receive this support, especially after all the animosity, and this was a fantastic way to end her lengthy mission.
Harsh Words
But Julia’s good work did not end there. She chopped up her dress and made whole new garments with the pieces, describing how much she had grown from this period. It was time to make the most out of her courageous activism. Speaking of activism, Julia had this to say regarding people’s reactions to protests, “In the face of criticism, petty or otherwise, constantly challenge yourself to respond with equal parts grace and hard evidence. Never get defensive.”
