In The Secrets of Silence, Shannon Malone Gonzalez investigates how the policing of black women is tied to the policing of their stories. Over a period of four years, Malone Gonzalez conducted intimate life-history interviews with black women about their encounters, listening to those who had never shared their stories before, had never even been asked to, or had tried repeatedly to speak to those around them to no avail. They all described the unspoken or whispered connections in the ways officers and communities socially control black women to put them "in their place."

En Influencias de las ideas modernas (1907), Luisa Capetillo, como si se tratase de una obra de teatro en tres actos, nos presenta a Angelina, hija de un rico empresario y terrateniente puertorriqueño, que se educa leyendo las obras de los escritores, filósofos y anarquistas europeos.

The global fertility industry is rapidly growing, hugely profitable and morally complex. This an industry where one person’s biological bad luck can be another person’s financial gain. From egg freezing to black-market breastmilk, the maternal body has never been more commodified, yet the ethical, emotional and economic implications are rarely considered.

The expectation used to be that men would be masculine and women would be feminine, and this was assumed to come naturally to them in virtue of their biology. On this view, sex is gender and gender is sex. A new view of gender has emerged in recent years, a view on which gender is an "identity," a way that people feel about themselves in terms of masculinity or femininity, regardless of their sex. On this view, sex is dismissed as unimportant, and gender is made paramount.

In Ancient Myths and Legends Without Men, expert classicist Mara Gold recenters the women at the heart of some of the world’s most enduring myths. From Greek and Roman legends to tales from around the globe, this fresh, feminist take shines a new light on iconic figures like Medusa, Hera, and Persephone, revealing the power, complexity, and agency they’ve always had.

At a time when so many of us feel unmoored from guidance, care, and belonging, Mothers of Magic is a profound call to return to our deepest sources of knowledge, nourishment, and kinship. When Perdita Finn found herself at a crossroads with her health, she embarked on a search for healing that led her to confront a heritage of misogyny and violence—and to summon the wisdom of her ancestors to unravel the trauma woven into her story and the story of civilization itself.

In this work, slut-shaming expert Leora Tanenbaum explains that when we criticize young women for wearing body-revealing outfits and sharing sexy selfies, we are losing the plot. Young people are sick of being held responsible for others' inability to keep their eyes off their bodies. They explain that most of the time, they aren't even trying to sexualize themselves—and, when they do, they are taking control over their bodily autonomy.

Die Bestsellerautorin Natalie Haynes nimmt uns mit in die Welt der griechischen Mythologie, zu den Göttinnen des Olymps. Missverständnisse und falsche Darstellungen in Kunst, Literatur und Popkultur verzerren unseren Blick, doch mit diesem Buch sehen wir Frauenfiguren, die wir schon zu kennen meinen, plötzlich in einem ganz neuen Licht. So ist Athene die Göttin des Krieges, wird aber auch für ihren weisen Rat geschätzt. Aphrodite ist die schönste aller Göttinnen, hat jedoch eine rachsüchtige Seite und bestraft jeden hart, der ihr missfällt.

What if the guy who "checked all the boxes" was also the one calling bullshit on the system? Marc Roe is a white, straight, small-town Midwestern man with something to say—and the guts to say it. Raised on government cheese and hard rules, he was taught to man up, stay quiet, and earn respect the old-fashioned way. But as he rose through the ranks of leadership—in business, in public service, and in life—he realized the playbook he inherited was broken. Per Aspera Ad Claritatem—Through Hardship To Clarity is the story of how he rewrote it.

This beautifully written memoir tells the story of their journey, which is also the story of Palestine, from the Nakba to the present—a seventy-five-year tale of conflict, exodus, occupation, return, and search for belonging, seen through the eyes of one writer and her family. Jiryis reveals how her father, Sabri, a PLO leader and advisor to Yasser Arafat, chose exile in 1970 because of his work.

This book addresses the fraught relationship between women and aggression, one troubled by age-old patriarchal forces that disparage women's ambition, assertion, and voice.

In The Double Tax, Harvard researcher Anna Gifty Opoku-Agyeman summarizes the disparities that women face as they navigate life's biggest moments. The numbers reveal that Black and white women lead vastly different lives, marked by dramatic gaps in job opportunities, salaries, housing costs, childcare access and generational wealth. She coins this gap as the 'double tax' - the compounded cost of racism and sexism.

Ho sempre pensato che la società femminile, nella media, fosse più evoluta della società maschile. Chiesi conferma di questa mia convinzione, presso un grande cenacolo, dove la guida mi rispose: "tu, come tutti, prima d'incarnarti, non eri né maschio né femmina e, una volta incarnato, sei stato tante volte maschio e tante volte femmina, a seconda delle esperienze che dovevi fare. Perchè vuoi separare ciò che invece è unito?

Knitting, sewing, embroidery, quilting―throughout history, these and other forms of textile work have often been dismissed as merely "women's work" and attached to ideas of domesticity and obedience. Yet, as psychologist and avid knitter Nicole Nehrig explores in this captivating book, textile work has often been a way for women to exercise power. When their voices were silenced and other avenues were closed off to them, women used the tools they had―often a needle and thread―to seek freedom.

Drawing on encounters between the Creeks of the Southeast and the Mi’kmaq of Nova Scotia in the eighteenth century, Savage Systers reveals a world in which Native women wielded power through means that shocked European observers: ritualized torture, scalp dances, brutal initiation rites, even infanticide and cannibalism. Far from aberrations, these acts embodied forms of feminine authority rooted deep in tribal culture. In deciding whether a captive lived or died, whether a stranger was rejected or absorbed, Native women determined the fate of peoples and nations.

Florence Nightingale is remembered the world over as the “Lady with the Lamp,” moving quietly through darkened hospital corridors during the Crimean War, bringing comfort and hope to wounded soldiers. Yet to leave her story at that glowing image is to miss the extraordinary breadth of her life’s work. Florence Nightingale was not only a nurse but also a visionary reformer, a relentless campaigner, and one of the first to use data and statistics as weapons for systemic change.

Growing up in West Texas, Jane Little Botkin didn't have designs on becoming a beauty queen. But not long after joining a pageant on a whim in college, she became the first protégé of El Paso's Richard Guy and Rex Holt, known as the "Kings of Beauty"—just as the 1970's counterculture movement began to take off.

La eco nell’opinione pubblica provocata dalla chiusura della pagina o gruppo Facebook “Mia moglie” non si placa, e anch’io, nella mia nullaggine intendo esprimere la mia solidarietà a quanti, donne o uomini non mi importa, siano stati offesi, derisi, abusati e violati dalle azioni degli scellerati individui che hanno violato l’intimità e la riservatezza di persone totalmente ignare.
