Looking forward to the Dworkin reissues! (Great covers imo.) I‘ve read 2 of these 3, and had to read them as pdfs 🙃 so we‘re well overdue for the reprint.

pickThis was a great book, it went into a lot of details about how much rape changes everything. I never really thought about the control some people can yield on others to infringe on their ability to vote. I don‘t know what to say really other than as a sexual assault survivor, reading this made me feel more heard.
This book has some really rough quotes in it. I‘m enjoying the way it‘s written and I feel the information in it is so important to not ignore.
The children like it better when I‘m not moving around as much.
I‘m struggling to articulate this one. Important; intersectional; staunchly anti capitalist and decolonial. I‘m in agreement with much of the book. A lot of it is very academic in language, and very French in its history covered but not inaccessible. A summary could be single issues will not win in struggles for equality, decolonisation must be strived for and respectability politics is futile. I need to read some fiction to feel less glum now.
so-soSome helpful info in here but also several things you‘ll probably just toss to the side. Certainly worth reading and taking what works.
In un libro di R. Nassar ho trovato la rappresentazione più perfetta (si può dire?) di quello che io penso di Michela Murgia: “Usa la sua ragione solo chi è in grado di incorporarvi la sua passione”. E lei ha usato la sua ragione fino all‘ultimo.
100 years ago today … This is one of the many reasons why feminism continues to be relevant and important. There are women still alive who were born before it was legal for them to wear pants in public.

Next week! How did it come so fast.
I am working on getting some of the oldest books off my TBR bookcase. I have had some of these for seriously maybe a decade. Why have I not read them?
