During the three decades before the American Civil War, Southern slaveholders tried to end the anti-slavery movement. They exerted their influence by censoring the press and the mail, attacking and killing abolitionists, burning buildings, drafting frightening new laws and repealing others, and terrorizing and abducting Northern free Blacks. Northerners began to realize that the Slave Power would not rest until slavery was allowed to plant itself all over the nation; many stopped compromising and pushed back.

In der chassidischen Satmar-Gemeinde in Williamsburg, New York, herrschen die strengsten Regeln einer ultraorthodoxen jüdischen Gruppe weltweit. Deborah Feldman führt uns bis an die Grenzen des Erträglichen, wenn sie von der strikten Unterwerfung unter die strengen Lebensgesetze erzählt, von Ausgrenzung, Armut, von der Unterdrückung der Frau, von ihrer Zwangsehe. Und von der alltäglichen Angst, bei Verbotenem entdeckt und bestraft zu werden. Sie erzählt, wie sie den beispiellosen Mut und die ungeheure Kraft zum Verlassen der Gemeinde findet – um ihrem Sohn ein Leben in Freiheit zu ermöglichen.

What began as grassroots activism quickly turned into nothing short of a crusade that would reshape British society and inspire women across the world.

Despite being one of the leading thinkers of the second wave feminist movement, today Shere Hite is little known, little written about, and, unsurprisingly, little read. Her groundbreaking book, The Hite Report, was the first feminist exploration of the link between sex and male power. It sold millions of copies when first published in 1976 and revolutionized the way people thought about marriage and the female orgasm. How, then, did it, and Hite, disappear from public consciousness?
