Brownies - Folklore and Girl Guides

Why are the Brownies of Canada changing their name? What even are brownies? And how is this story connected to Folklore?

Natalie is sharing her personal memories of being in brownies as a child, her confusion over what the name meant back then, and her excitement of where this organization is headed with more change and inclusion for all girls.
