Del origen del patriarcado a la revolución feminista del siglo XIX.

We are part of a system that was founded on inequality and drastic power imbalance. Of course, many things are better than they were. But the age of social media has dramatically exposed truths previously hidden. In this collection of essays, covering subjects from porn to the patriarchy, Soma Sara draws a line between the different facets of our society that enable inequality to flourish. The scale of the problem is vast, and deeply entrenched in all of us.

A staunch feminist of mixed-race heritage, Hanna has succeeded in an industry not designed for people like her. Interweaving anecdotes from familial and personal experiences—episodes of messy sex, introspection, and that time actor Vincent D'Onofrio tweeted that Hanna Flint sounded 'like a secret agent'—she offers a critical eye on the screen's representation of women and ethnic minorities, their impact on her life, body image and ambitions, with the humour and eloquence that has made her a leading film critic of her generation.

En este libro, Catalina Ruiz-Navarro, una de las voces más destacadas de este movimiento en Latinoamérica, recorre, a partir de un testimonio profundamente honesto y agudo, un camino que aborda el cuerpo, el poder, la violencia, el sexo, la lucha activista y el amor. A su vez, once heroínas, entre las que se cuentan María Cano, Flora Tristán, Hermila Galindo y Violeta Parra, bellamente retratadas por Luisa Castellanos, alzan la voz y evidencian que hablar de feminismos es necesario, es importante, es la resistencia.

Deborah Levy arranca estas memorias recordando la etapa de su vida en que rompía a llorar cuando subía unas escaleras mecánicas. Esemovimiento inocuo la llevaba a rincones de su memoria a los que no quería volver. Son esos recuerdos los que forman Cosas que no quiero saber, el inicio de su «autobiografía en construcción». Esta primera parte de lo que será un tríptico sobre la condición de ser mujer nace como respuesta al ensayo «Por qué escribo», de George Orwell. Sin embargo, Levy no viene a dar respuestas.

This book is about a movement. A movement made up of women and men around the world who are no longer afraid to speak out about violence, abuse, harassment, sexism, abuse of power and patriarchy.

This movement has uncovered the global scale of gender discrimination, sexual abuse and exploitation which women and girls face. As the years have passed, the movement has grown.

In 2018, boundary-breaking visual and sonic artist Cosey Fanni Tutti received a commission to write the soundtrack to a film about Delia Derbyshire, the pioneering electronic composer who influenced the likes of Aphex Twin and The Chemical Brothers.

At the same time, Tutti began reading about Margery Kempe, the fifteenth-century mystic visionary who wrote the first English-language autobiography. The connections between the three women soon shifted into focus.

"Respondona" trata sobre el significado de la conciencia feminista en la vida diaria, la recuperación personal, la superación de la supremacía blanca y masculina, las relaciones íntimas y, todo ello, explorando el punto donde lo público y lo privado se encuentran.

¿Quién dijo que convertirse en una mujer de mediana edad iba a ser una tarea fácil? Caitlin Moran, que arrasó con aquel tronchante y lúcido manifiesto de feminismo asilvestrado titulado Cómo ser mujer, regresa con una secuela que desmonta la teoría de que segundas partes nunca fueron buenas, dada la espectacularidad de esta. Si en la anterior entrega hablaba la joven Caitlin, aquí es la cuarentona la que vuelve a la carga. Ahora las experiencias vitales son otras y han cambiado algunas prioridades y puntos de vista, pero la pluma con la que escribe sigue afiladísima.

Drawing on examples from around the world—from Uganda, Nigeria and South Africa to Saudi Arabia, the Americas and Europe—Gqola traces the construction and machinations of the female fear factory by exposing its lies, myths and seductions. She shows how seemingly disparate effects like driving bans, higher education rape, sexual harassment and femicide are all premised on the construction of people, mostly women, as female, and thereafter the use of fear as a tool of patriarchal subjugation and punishment.

As a breastfed baby herself, Joanna Wolfarth assumed it would come easily to her when she had her first child. Yet three weeks after the birth, she was back in hospital with an underweight baby, bewildered by the inconsistent advice and myriad problems she was encountering. As a cultural historian, Joanna's impulse was to look to the past. What she discovered, neglected in the archives, amazed and reassured her. She found connection and solace in communities from the past.

Como una suerte de memorias, que van desde la infancia hasta la adultez, Desirée Bela-Lobedde, activista afroespañola, nos cuenta cómo es vivir siendo mujer y negra en España, cómo es sentirse siempre diferente y cómo es ser testigo del racismo que todavía existe en este país. Y lo hace desde el corazón y desde la profunda convicción de que esto puede cambiar y que, finalmente, todos podemos llegar a ser mejores personas si dejamos los prejuicios y la intolerancia de lado.

Mira como una mujer y pinta como un hombre. Eso decían de la vanguardista francesa Émilie Charmy en pleno siglo XX, o de la española Elena Brockman, una de las pocas artistas con obra en el Museo del Prado. Esta frase condensa muchas de las claves para entender la difícil aceptación en torno a la actividad artística femenina a lo largo de la historia. Ese silencio es posterior a sus creaciones: si tras las guerras la historia la escriben los vencedores, los manuales de arte solo se escribieron desde una perspectiva masculina.

Rich, privileged and powerful men have teams of lawyers at their disposal to suppress allegations and prevent newspaper stories from running. Individual women, frontline services, advocacy groups and journalists find themselves fighting against censorship. The weaponising of the law to silence survivors from speaking about their abuse, and anyone who might report on it, has been described as the 'perverse twist' of MeToo. Leading human rights barristers Jennifer Robinson and Dr Keina Yoshida set out to investigate this global problem.
