Titoli in Studi sulla femminilità

L'incrocio tra le discriminazioni e gli effetti che queste hanno sulle persone impone al femminismo di occuparsi di tutte le marginalità e di lottare contro ogni forma di oppressione. Dall'importanza della giustizia climatica alle disuguaglianze sociali; dall'abilismo al fat shaming; dall'omolesbobitransfobia alla mascolinità tossica: "Anche questo è femminismo" vuole indagare lo stato attuale delle emarginazioni e portare alla luce come solo uno sguardo intersezionale possa realmente cambiare la società in cui viviamo. Introduzione di Irene Facheris.

Both an expression of the joy of self-healing and the need to be ever vigilant in the struggle for equality, Sisters of the Yam continues to speak to the experience of black womanhood.

Per Papa Francesco, Eva è stata vittima di una fake news uscita dalla bocca del serpente. A quanto pare, da allora le bufale non hanno smesso di rovinare le donne, visto che ancora oggi se una ha subito molestie si scrive che ci ha fatto carriera, mentre se uno ammazza la moglie per i giornali ha agito in preda a una rabbia momentanea. Ma le vittime di questi abusi dell'informazione non sono solo i corpi delle donne: quando si parla di migranti la verità si inabissa in fondo al mare, come un cadavere affogato.
