Feminism, Interrupted: Disrupting Power (Outspoken by Pluto)

Product Information

But loosely, feminists have understood gender as our sense of self in the world, how we present our bodies, speak, move--anything that refers to our own bodies. These divides are also seen through the lens of voices often marginalized in mainstream, liberal feminism, with interesting cultural, historical and scholarly references abounding.

We don’t share your credit card details with third-party sellers, and we don’t sell your information to others.Feminism Interrupted seeks to highlight to the reader that feminism is not about our individual selves as women and what we think should be done about certain issues. I discovered her work through the Silver Panel on abolition where I was blown away by the clarity and depth of her argument. Purtroppo non esiste ancora una traduzione in italiano, ma data la fluidità della prosa e la brevità del saggio, io sono sicuro che possa essere fruibile anche da persone meno ferrate in inglese. molto utile sia per chi volesse avere un idea base sulla sintassi e sulle regole grammaticali, sia per chi intenda fare un ripasso. Covers a range of topics and clearly explains how feminism intersects with so many current issues, from Islamophobia to prison abolition, transmisogyny and sex work.

Mimo że to teoretyczne podejście do radykalnego feminizmu, Olufemi pisze zwięźle i skutecznie udaje jej się przekazać swoje obserwacje, przez co książkę świetnie się czyta. olufemi covers a lot of interesting topics in a short space, touching on race and intersectionality, islamophobia and transmisogyny in less than 150 pages.The struggle for freedom is too difficult to depart on alone, and we share the struggle with women all over the world”. Not only that, it has a great collection of further reading recommendations based on the topics discussed to help readers continue their journey of learning about these topics.

Lola Olufemi’s Feminism Interrupted seems also to be a book about the excision of non-white battles from feminism.Kendall cites as an example the fact that concern about rape culture in the US focuses on the date rape of suburban teens, and not the much higher rate of sexual assault faced by, for instance, indigenous and Alaskan women. What I also really liked about Lola Olufemi's work is it's grounding in the British experiences of women (particularly Black women) and facts relating to Britain.

Melalui feminisme, seharusnya kita dapat melihat gender dan jenis kelamin sebagai sesuatu yang fluid. I would love it if it went even deeper, but at 143 pages she does an amazing job of cramming so much information in and explaining things in a really accessible way.Probabilmente servirebbe anche da queste parti un libro come quello di Olufemi, che traccia in modo metodico e appassionato i principali temi attuali del femminismo. Her writing is clear and focused and she provides a comprehensive bibliography for those wanting to learn more. Cudownie rozprawia się też z liberalnym (mainstreamowym czy też konsumpcyjnym) feminizmem, pokazując, jak bardzo wyklucza on te grupy, które feminizmu najbardziej potrzebują i którym głos jest zabierany. Ci ho messo del tempo per capire che la vera emancipazione consiste nell’estendere questa scoperta della libertà oltre me stessa.
