In honor of International Day of the Girl, the First Lady is sharing her first-ever Spotify playlist, according to this post Sunday on Twitter from the White House blog:

From the soul singers of the 60s to the young female artists who have followed in their footsteps – the First Lady has put together a playlist that every woman – young or old – will love.

At the Global Citizens Festival in September, the First Lady launched a campaign to spread awareness of the 62 million girls worldwide who are not in school. Join the First Lady, Beyoncé, Alicia Keys, Janelle Monae and so many others by tweeting or Instagraming a photo of yourself using the hashtag #62MillionGirls and telling the world what you learned in school: “In school, I learned ____. #62MillionGirls don’t have that chance.” Visit 62milliongirls.com to see the yearbook, download the Peace Corps toolkit, and learn all the ways that you and your friends can get involved in Let Girls Learn.
