The Blurb On The Back:
Feminism is …
… the struggle for equality between women and men.
It didn’t just start with #MeToo. The fight for women’s rights has been around for hundreds of years. Today’s feminism is more diverse than ever before and asks all kinds of questions. How does sexism affect women? Is gender fixed or fluid? What is intersectional feminism?
Get to grips with the big issues in this lively introduction, and meet some inspirational rebels who were not afraid to stand up for what they believed.
( The Review (Cut For Spoilers): )
The Verdict:
Alexandra Black is a writer specialising in non-fiction, Laura Buller writes for younger readers, Emily Hoyle is a writer who has covered feminism and Dr Megan Todd is a lecturer in social science at the University of Central Lancashire. In this well structured introduction to feminism aimed at teens (introduced by TV presenter Gemma Cairney), they set out some of the key moments in feminist history and the main issues it’s tackling today.
