No, las mujeres prehistóricas no se pasaban el día barriendo la cueva y cuidando de los hijos mientras esperaban que los hombres regresaran de cazar. Ellas también perseguían a grandes mamíferos, fabricaban herramientas y joyas, construían viviendas y exploraban formas de expresión simbólica.

As cleaners and caregivers are exported from poor regions into rich ones, they leave behind a material and emotional absence that is keenly felt by their families. In the US, many of these women’s voices are silenced by language or fear or the habit of powerlessness. Mothercoin sets out to tell these stories, recounting the experience of Mexican and Central American women living and working in the private homes of Houston, Texas, while also telling a larger story about global immigration, working motherhood, and the private experience of the public world we have all created.

Recent reports show that women make up the fastest-growing population within the United States’ criminal justice system. And yet, despite necessary conversations about incarceration and prison abolition, their stories of abuse, neglect, poverty, and family separation often go untold. Now, through immersive storytelling and expert analysis of women’s lives after prison, anthropologist Jorja Leap explores their journeys into, through, and beyond the jail cell.

From 1970 to 1980, the Third World Women’s Alliance lived the dream of third world feminism. The small bicoastal organization was one of the earliest groups advocating for what came to be known as intersectional activism, arguing that women of color faced a “triple jeopardy” of race, gender, and class oppression. Interweaving oral history, scholarly and archival research, and first-person memoir, We Were There documents how the TWWA shaped and defined second wave feminism.

Witchcraft has made a comeback in popular culture, especially among feminists. A growing subculture of BIPOC witches, led by Afro-Caribbean immigrants, Indigenous Americans, and other witches of color, is reclaiming their ancestral traditions and contributing their voices to the feminist witchcraft of today.

From award-winning writer and critic Alison Croggon, Monsters is a hybrid of memoir and essay that takes as its point of departure the painful breakdown of a relationship between two sisters. It explores how our attitudes are shaped by the persisting myths that underpin colonialism and patriarchy, how the structures we are raised within splinter and distort the possibilities of our lives and the lives of others. Monsters asks how we maintain the fictions that we create about ourselves, what we will sacrifice to maintain these fictions.

Endlich wütend! Eine Liebeserklärung an ein ungeliebtes Gefühl. Zicken, Diven, Hysterikerinnen, Schreckschrauben: Frauen, die ihrer Wut freien Lauf lassen, haben schnell ihren Ruf weg. Mädchen werden zu stiller Eleganz erzogen, nicht zu Durchsetzungsfähigkeit. Doch weibliche Wut ist ein Geschenk, und wir müssen lernen, sie als solches wahrzunehmen. Das Frauenwahlrecht, #Aufschrei und der Women's March: Richtig eingesetzt, kann Wut zu einer mächtigen Waffe gegen persönliche und politische Unterdrückung werden und uns helfen, die Welt zu verändern.

Una meditación sobre el feminismo el año de la huelga feminista y el #MeToo. Tres acontecimientos más una sentencia (el #MeToo, la carta de las intelectuales francesas, la huelga feminista del 8 de marzo y la sentencia de La Manada) han marcado la agenda en los últimos meses y han puesto en el punto de mira el concepto del feminismo hoy. Marta Sanz reflexiona acerca de lo que ello supone, cómo posicionarse ante esos hechos concretos, cómo "proteger" la lucha feminista de la simplificación y comercialización de un capitalismo que lo puede absorber todo.

Lee and Wiles trace the womens' stories in three time periods: the Long March itself, a decade later at liberation and then 40 years on.

How do we explain our newfound cultural investment in empathy and social justice? For decades, Joseph Campbell had defined our cultural aspirations in The Hero with a Thousand Faces, emphasizing the value of seeking glory and earning immortality. His work became the playbook for Hollywood, with its many male-centric quest narratives. Challenging the models in Campbell's canonical work, Maria Tatar explores how heroines, rarely wielding a sword and deprived of a pen, have flown beneath the radar even as they have been bent on social missions.

The founder of Latina Rebels and a “Latinx Activist You Should Know” (Teen Vogue) arms women of color with the tools and knowledge they need to find success on their own terms.

John Brown was fiercely committed to the militant abolitionist cause, a crusade that culminated in Brown’s raid on the Federal armory at Harpers Ferry in 1859 and his subsequent execution. Less well known is his devotion to his family, and they to him. Two of Brown’s sons were killed at Harpers Ferry, but the commitment of his wife and daughters often goes unacknowledged. As detailed by Laughlin-Schultz, Brown’s second wife and his daughters were in many ways the most ordinary of women. However, they also lived extraordinary lives.

In a nation deeply divided by race, the “Karens” of the world are easy to villainize. But in Nice White Ladies, Jessie Daniels addresses the unintended complicity of even well-meaning White women. She reveals how their everyday choices harm communities of color.

Where pregnancy is concerned, let every pregnancy be for everyone. Let us overthrow, in short, the “family”. The surrogacy industry is estimated to be worth over one billion dollars a year, and many of its surrogates around the world work in terrible conditions - deception, wage-stealing, and money-skimming are rife; adequate medical care is horrifyingly absent; and informed consent is depressingly rare. In Full Surrogacy Now, Sophie Lewis brings a fresh and unique perspective to the topic.

Women including Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Margaret Sanger, and Sheryl Sandberg are commonly celebrated as leaders of feminism. Yet they have fought for the few, not the many. As award-winning scholar Kyla Schuller argues, their White feminist politics dispossess the most marginalized to liberate themselves. In The Trouble with White Women, Schuller brings to life the 200-year counter-history of Black, Indigenous, Latina, poor, queer, and trans women pushing back against White feminists and uniting to dismantle systemic injustice.
