hands，I feel like I cant lose，” said Cheyenne Grisez,14.“It makes me happy and I feel like I can do anything.”On the final day of the summer academy in California，Williams worked with Grisez and Camila Prado,15，on a short film about Prados fight against an eating disorder.In the film，Prado bravely interviewed her parents and sister about how she was able to beat her depression and eating disorder.This film and others the girls had made were shown to parents and friends on the last day of the academy，celebrating their hard work.“Its their story，and nobody knows how to tell it better than they do，” Williams said.“These girls are from really difficult backgrounds.They feel trapped sometimes.They feel alone，” Williams said.“The camera gives them a way to look at their world in a different way and get out of that feeling.”Girls in the program practice their skills and build confidence by going out in the community and interviewing people for the short films.Many of them had no experience，but they had good storytelling skills.“I work with these girls.Every day I leave inspired and completely grateful，because I know that due to the work were doing with them，things will be better，” said GlobalGirl Media summer academy project director Heather Faison.语篇解读 本文讲述了非营利组织GlobalGirl Media通过教女孩儿们数字讲故事技巧来帮助女孩儿们摆脱烦恼。4Why do many American girls like to tell stories using the
