This Little Book Has it All

Have you ever wished you could find a book that succinctly describes feminism today and why we still very much need it? This book, We Should All Be Feminists, accomplishes just that. It touches on a plethora of topics and gives you the words to describe what you’ve always been thinking but couldn’t always articulate. And it’s a great, quick resource for you ladies and guys out there who would like to know, what’s the big deal about feminism. I highly recommend it. For every conversation with family members, friends, or strangers who don’t get feminism, I wish I could just pull this little book out and say, “Here, just read this.”

Check it out! It’s a quick read: I read it in about 20 minutes, it’s that succinct and fantastic. I was reading it while waiting for my clothes to dry at the laundry mat and was trying not to yell out my approval, since I was in public. But if I did, I would have stood up in my chair at every other sentence and shouted, “Yeah!” and “Exactly!”and “that’s what I’ve been saying!” and “Gah, right?!!”

There’s a reason this is the book that all 16- year-old students, male and female, are given, for free, in Sweden. This should be required reading for students here in the U.S too, because,
