Luisa was a brave girl from Puerto Rico who, ever since she was young, fought for what she believed was right and defended women's rights. She lived in a time when women had to wear skirts, even though they were often uncomfortable and did not allow them to move freely. Luisa decided to change things, becoming one of the first women to wear pants in public!
