The original text, 'I Love My Body' was written by feminist artist Nikki Luna

Actress Angel Aquino helps teach kids about bodily autonomy and consent as she reads Mahal Ko Ang Aking Katawan, a Tagalog translation of Nikki Luna’s book I Love My Body.

The book, which is illustrated by Julienne Dadivas and published by feminist publishing group Power in Her Story, teaches young kids that their bodies belong to them alone, and that no one else is allowed to touch it without consent.

The Tagalog translation, done by Faye Cura and read and acted out by Angel, was released online as a video on Tuesday, September 15 on Power in Her Story’s Facebook page.

According to the group, the video is available to be shared or downloaded for free, for educational purposes, and can be shared to kids of all levels and in various communities.

The original English version of the book was released in 2018. – Rappler.com
