With this issue of Girlhood Studies, we recognize the tenth anniversary of
the death of Jackie Kirk, one of the co-founders of the journal. While we
begin the issue with a visual essay "Honoring the Legacy of Jackie Kirk," in
which we document a special international event that took place earlier this
year that paid tribute to her work, as the other two co-founding editors of
GHS, we, Claudia Mitchell and Jacqueline Reid-Walsh, would like to offer
our own tribute to Jackie. As someone who travelled the globe, Jackie was a
great emailer, and managed to remain connected to vast networks of
researchers, practitioners, and members of NGOs regardless of where she
was, and so it is perhaps fitting that we have found ourselves emailing back
on forth about what we might say about her now.
