Up: Voices from the Next Feminist Generation,
Barbara Findlen, ed. |
This
is a collection of stories and articles written for and by women of
our generation, from all walks of life. It's a good "starting point"
for people who are new to the whole feminist thing, and a refreshing
affirmation for those who've been in the movement for a while. All
in all, good stuff. You'll laugh, you'll cry. Trust me. |
Reviving
Ophelia, Mary Pipher, Ph.D |
A
look at what's happening to young women today through the eyes of
an "outsider;" this book is one of the reasons this page got started.
At some points it's frightening to see that this is actually happening
to us, but at the same time, it lets us know that we are not alone
in our struggle to become a woman in a world that's not too kind to
us. |
SchoolGirls,
Peggy Orenstein |
Similar
to Ophelia, this book takes a close look at the lives of young
women and girls today. The book focuses on the difficulties that young
women of color and young white women face, examining both the vast
differences and striking similarities. |
Third
Wave Agenda: Being Feminist, Doing Feminism,
Leslie Heywood and Jennifer Drake, eds. |
Another
collection of stories from the young feminists, but this one focuses
on the question, "So, what is it that we're doing?" It takes a look
at the history of parts of the feminist movement, critiques them,
and puts into perspective our tasks for tomorrow. |
