- Description
- In the run-up to the 2016 presidential election, the mantle of feminist elect has descended on Hillary Clinton and most mainstream feminist leaders and organizations endorse her. In this atmosphere, dissent seems tantamount to political betrayal. In this book feminists contest this simplistic reading of the candidate. A look at Hillary Clinton’s track record on welfare, Wall Street, criminal justice, education, and war reveals that she has advanced laws and policies that have done real harm to the lives of women and children across the country and the globe.

- transgenders, transseksualiteit, zwarte vrouwen, geweld, populaire cultuur, Verenigde Staten, bundel
- Description
- The increasing representation of trans identity throughout art and popular culture in recent years has been paradoxical. Trans visibility is touted as a sign of a liberal society, but it has coincided with a political moment marked both by heightened violence against trans people (especially trans women of color) and by the suppression of trans rights under civil law.This book speculates about a third term : the trapdoor, neither entrance nor exit, but a secret passageway leading elsewhere.

- Description
- This book engages current scholarship on women in Texas, the South, and the United States. It provides insights into Texas’s geographic position, bordering on the West and sharing a history with Mexico, while analyzing the ways in which Texas stories mirror a larger American narrative. The biographies and essays illustrate a diversity among Texas women, reflecting experiences ranging from those of dispossessed enslaved women to wealthy patrons of the arts. That history also captures the ways in which women’s lives reflect both personal autonomy and opportunities to engage in the public sphere.

- Description
- This book is about how black women are depicted on reality television. The book’s ten contributors, black female scholars from a variety of disciplines, provide a wide range of perspectives, while considering everything from Basketball Wives to Say Yes to the Dress. As regular viewers of reality television, these scholars are able to note ways in which the genre presents positive images of black womanhood, even as they catalog a litany of stereotypes about race, class, and gender that it tends to reinforce

- Description
- This book chronicles the influence of second wave feminism on everything from electoral politics to LGBTQ rights. The original descriptions of second wave feminism focused on elite, white voices, obscuring the accomplishments of many activists, as third wave feminists criticized. In this book scholars provide a more complex description of second wave feminism, in which the efforts of women from many races, classes, sexual orientations, and religious traditions, in the fight for equality have had a long-term impact on American politics.
