The Women's Liberation Movement
This essential volume explores the historical and cultural events leading up to and following the Women's Liberation Movement of the 1970s. This book addresses several issues surrounding the movement, such as the debate surrounding the Equal Rights Amendment and the impact of the "Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination of Women" treaty adopted by the United Nations General Assembly in 1979. Personal narratives are featured from people impacted by the Women's Movement, including an interview with a member of NOW (the National Organization for Women), and a writer recalling what the liberation movement meant to her in the 1970s.
Teen series
Nell’attuale panorama culturale, le piattaforme streaming occupano uno spazio che solo un decennio fa era impensabile, dando adito a un’ulteriore rivalutazione dei prodotti seriali. Accolte agli esordi con ostilità, rivalutate dai television studies anche grazie al favore del pubblico, le serie sono state riconosciute nel tempo come opere di qualità, offrendo un’ampia gamma di scelta e una ricercatezza tecnico-stilistica sempre più nitida. Oggi l’attaccamento ossessivo degli spettatori, in continuo aumento, si configura spesso come una vera e propria dipendenza. Tuttavia, quando si parla più specificatamente di serie per adolescenti, che paradossalmente sono i veri artefici della nascita di una serialità di qualità e i primi fruitori di questi show, si sprofonda ancora nel pregiudizio. Si tratta davvero di prodotti scadenti? Da Beverly Hills 90210 a Buffy, da Freaks and Geeks a Sex Education, passando per Skins, Euphoria, Big Mouth e tante altre, questo libro offre uno sguardo critico sui titoli e sullo sviluppo di un genere entrato nell’immaginario collettivo di una nuova generazione.
On The Shoulders of Mighty Women
Author Lesley Michaels takes you on an exploration of life, womanhood, feminism, and the often-disorienting effects of the three colliding as women struggle to hold up more than just their half of the sky. Women represent all races, cultures, religious affiliations, and sexual orientations. As they establish a new ethos of equality and equity among themselves, each one in every community - from elders to our current generation of children and those still to come - will be positively impacted. It is our time to rise and be loud, be bold, to be unapologetic in our demand for benevolent equality and equity in the lives of each person. It is our time to reach back and lift one with us as we rise.w

Portrait of a Woman
Discover the story of Adélaïde Labille-Guiard—a long-ignored artist and feminist of eighteenth-century France—in this imaginative and illuminating biography from an award-winning writer. Born in Paris in 1749, Adélaïde Labille-Guiard rose from shopkeeper’s daughter to an official portraitist of the royal court—only to have her achievements reduced to ash by the French Revolution.

But Adélaïde Labille-Guiard’s s...
