Reporteras, poetas, académicas, artistas, documentalistas, fotógrafas, escritoras, investigadoras. Somos compañeras que caminamos juntas desde hace una década. Nuestra intención ha sido contar la violencia desde el cuerpo de las mujeres. La entendemos, a esa violencia, como una piedra que cae en un lago. Como ondas que se expanden, que avanzan en el espacio, cada vez más sutiles, silenciosas.

The wisdom goddesses of yoga who embody shakti, or sacred energy, continue to gain popularity as we become familiar with the ways they help us break through negativity, trauma, and dysfunction to attain self-love, peace, and abundance. Yet, we rarely hear about Sri Radha and her unique position as the primal Shakti because she is hidden deep within the Upanishads, Tantras, and Puranas as their most confidential spiritual subject.

Pioneering Chinese American actress Anna May Wong made more than 60 films, headlined theater and vaudeville productions, and even starred in her own television show. Her work helped shape racial modernity, as she embodied the dominant image of Chinese, and more generally, “Oriental” women between 1925 and 1940. In Anna May Wong, Shirley Jennifer Lim re-evaluates Wong’s life and work as a consummate artist, and positions the actress as a historical and cultural entrepreneur who rewrote categories of representation.

Como en otros campos, la historia de la ciencia ha asignado a las mujeres el lugar que se presuponía que les correspondía desde una perspectiva exclusivamente masculina, a menudo incurriendo en afirmaciones y teorías destinadas a invisibilizar o directamente inventar temas relacionados con su cuerpo, salud o capacidades. Aunque la presencia cada vez mayor de mujeres en la ciencia no sea condición exclusiva de una mejor ciencia, es necesaria para que se puedan reformular preguntas, se cuestionen valores hegemónicos y se encuentren nuevas prioridades.

A 123 anni dalla loro prima pubblicazione, le parole accorate di Anna Kuliscioff restano drammaticamente attuali. Si parla delle innumerevoli, ingiustificate disparità uomo-donna (compresa la disparità di salario a parità di mansione) e di tutte le loro conseguenze nefaste. Non solo sulla vita delle donne, ma sul funzionamento della società tutta. Una chiave di lettura così moderna, quella di Anna Kuliscioff, che permette anche d'inquadrare anche le nuove misoginie dei giorni nostri: bodyshaming, pornrevenge, nuovi movimenti anti-abortisti, femminicidio.

Too often, we blame women. For walking home alone at night. For not demanding a seat at the table. For not overcoming the odds that are stacked against them. This distracts us from the real problem: the failings and biases of a society that was not built for women. In this explosive book, feminist writer and activist Laura Bates exposes the systemic prejudice at the heart of five of our key institutions.

1542. A French noblewoman is left abandoned on a small island north of Nova Scotia. She has a crossbow, arquebuses and gunpowder. The island is populated only by wild beasts. She may be pregnant at this time. Centuries later, whilst mothering her young children, a woman begins writing what she believes to be a television script about the life of Marguerite de la Rocque and her incredible story of survival against the odds. As she draws closer to the nature of Marguerite, the woman begins to question her ability to tell this story.

From Cartimandua, the forgotten Iron Age Queen of the North, to Woodbine-smoking football player Lily Parr, Kate, with her trademark wit and sense of fun, shows how these astonishing trailblazers laid the ground for modern stars from Victoria Wood to Little Mix.

Esta Historia de las mujeres responde a la necesidad de ceder la palabra a las mujeres. Alejadas, desde la Antigüedad, del escenario donde se enfrentan a los dueños del destino, reconstruir su historia significa describir su lento acceso a los medios de expresión y su conversión en persona que asume un papel protagonista. Este análisis implica, asimismo, que las relaciones entre los sexos condicionan los acontecimientos, o la evolución de las sociedades. No se buscan conclusiones tajantes sino que las mujeres encuentren, al fin, su espacio propio.

So often, we remember war heroes as men completing great feats of strength on the battlefield, saving the lives of their fellow soldiers.

They are the women who risked life and limb to do what they could to stop the spread of fascism. Within the minutes of this book lie the stories of five incredible women prisoners of war during World War Two.

Utwór jest zaproszeniem do podróży do Jejlandii, krainy, w której niepodzielną władzę sprawuje kobieta. Autorka definiuje tekst jako dziennik pokładowy, zbiór materiałów pisanych w ciągu kilku lat – różnorodnych, lecz połączonych potrzebą „zobaczenia świata po kobiecemu". Dunin zaznacza, że jeśli ma być mowa o feminizmie, to jest to feminizm autorski, subiektywny i prywatny.

No hace mucho, nadie podía imaginarse que una latina de veintiocho años se postulase para el Congreso en representación de Queens y el Bronx: era necesario enfrentarse a la maquinaria política de la ciudad, casi exclusivamente blanca y exclusivamente masculina. Pero desde que Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez apareció en la escena con toda su gloria, tweets y tendencia a romper todos los esquemas, el rostro de la política del siglo XXI ha cambiado.

The Heroine’s Journey describes contemporary woman’s search for wholeness in a society where she has been defined according to masculine values.

First published over 40 years ago, The Cancer Journals is a startling, powerful account of Audre Lorde's experience with breast cancer and mastectomy. Long before narratives explored the silences around illness and women's pain, Lorde questioned the rules of conformity for women's body images and supported the need to confront physical loss not hidden by prosthesis.
