Do It Like a Woman... and Change the World by Caroline Criado Pérez

5.0

The more I read, the angrier I got, and the more privileged I felt. My life has been lucky; I have worked hard and made choices to be responsible, but I started from a good place - born in Western Europe in the 1970s with a free education, social mobility and access to sex education and contraception. As a woman, if don't have those, you're fucked, generally, and also sometimes even when you do. This book is all about women doing all sorts of things the Daily Mail thinks we can't or shouldn't, here in the West and in places where women have to really struggle. Both sets of circumstances are treated equally because sexism, and bravery, exist everywhere.
Criado-Perez is a great campaigner. What a great voice. I wish this were more mainstream. But then that's the whole point - if it were, we wouldn't have such a big problem, would we?
