The Future is Feminist: Radical, Funny, and Inspiring Writing by Women

Product Description A star-studded roster of iconic women write powerfully about what it means to be a feminist yesterday, today, and tomorrow. These poets, essayists, activists, actors, and professors address topics ranging from workplace harassment to resting bitch face. The results are by turns refreshing, provocative, moving, and hilarious. A diverse chorus of intersectional voices and a forward-looking stance set this book apart, and its vibrant, textured package makes it a beautiful gift. It's the smart, covetable anthology that women of all ages will turn to for support and inspiration in the ongoing fight for gender equality. Review "Witty, smart, and unapologetic.... This wide-ranging collection neatly encapsulates the priorities and touchstones of contemporary feminism." --Publishers Weekly "an anthology that reflects the diversity of voices in feminism today, putting paid to the belief that there is a single narrative to which women should subscribe. Included in this exploration of politics, gender and power is an excerpt from Mary Wollstonecraft s A Vindication of the Rights of Women and a vision of how to build a feminist society by Naomi Alderman." --Harper's Bazaar "This is one of the key strengths of The Future Is Feminist a full commitment to diversity, not just in terms of races and generations, but also topics, styles and approaches, resulting in a varied, energising read. At the same time, all the pieces seem connected in spirit signifying a thread between the generations that may, at times, have become frayed, but is ultimately unbreakable." , --The Observer's New Review About the Author Mallory Farrugia is a writer and editor based in San Francisco.
