- Description
- David rejects the notion that gender equality has been achieved. She puts the focus back onto issues such as changing patterns of women’s and girls’ participation in education across the globe, feminist strategies for policy and legal interventions around human rights, and violence against women and children. She discusses waves of feminism linked to school-teaching and pedagogies in higher education as well as a case study of an international educational programme to challenge gender-related violence.

- Description
- This book considers six authors who use experimental methods and negative modes of critique in their fiction and feminism. The authors covered are Valerie Solanas, Kathy Acker, Theresa Cha, Chantel Chawaf, Jeanette Winterson, and Lynda Barry. These writers share a commitment to combining extreme content with formally radical techniques in order to enact varieties of gender, sex, race, class and nation-based experience that, they suggest, may only be “represented” accurately through the experimental unmaking of dominant structures of rationality.

- Description
- This book draws attention to the place of queer cinema in the world and the intersection of queer politics and world cinema: how do queer films construct ways of being in the world?, and what is the political value of the worlds that queer cinema creates? It explores how queer filmmaking intersects with international sexual cultures, geopolitics, public space and aesthetics to disrupt dominant modes of world making, or 'worlding'. The authors move beyond the gay art cinema canon to consider a broad range of films, documentaries and activist videos. They trace how queer cinema circulates around the world via film festivals, online consumption, and human rights campaigns.

- Description
- Since its 2013 premiere, Orange Is the New Black has become Netflix's most watched series, garnering critical praise and numerous awards and advancing the cultural phenomenon of binge-watching. .

- Description
- The book begins in the 1950s, when gays and lesbians were criminals, psychiatrists saw them as mentally ill, churches saw them as sinners, and society victimized them with hatred. Against this dark backdrop, a few people began to fight back, paving the way for the revolutionary changes of the 1960s and beyond. Faderman discusses the protests in the 1960s: the counter reaction of the 1970s and early eighties: the decimated but united community during the AIDS epidemic: and the current hurdles for the right to marriage equality.
