WE WILL NOT BE SILENCED

Jean McClellan spends her time in almost complete silence, limited to just one hundred words a day. Any more, and a thousand volts of electricity will course through her veins.

For herself, her daughter, and for every woman silenced, Jean will reclaim her voice. This is only the beginning…
