The Spice Girls 1996 hit “Wannabe” now has a feminism twist.

As a way to promote gender equality, Project Everyone released a video for girls and women around the globe that took the Spice Girls original and remade it. Project Everyone states on its website that “2016 is our chance to use our collective power and tell world leaders what we really really want for girls and women.”

Similar to the Spice Girls, the performers energetically dance and sing of the things women “really, really want,” which include an end to violence against girls, an end to child marriage, quality education for all girls, and equal pay for equal work.
