A personal and powerful essay from Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, the bestselling author of Americanah and Half of a Yellow Sun, based on her 2013 TEDx Talk of the same name.
‘I would like to ask that we begin to dream about and plan for a different world. A fairer world. A world of happier men and happier women who are truer to themselves. And this is how to start: we must raise our daughters differently. We must also raise our sons differently…’
What does “feminism” mean today?
In this personal, eloquently argued essay – adapted from her much-admired Tedx talk of the same name – Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie offers readers a unique definition of feminism for the twenty-first century, one rooted in inclusion and awareness. Drawing extensively on her own experiences and her deep understanding of the often masked realities of sexual politics, here is one remarkable author’s exploration of what it means to be a woman now – an of-the-moment rallying cry for why we should all be feminists.

Väldigt mycket subjektiva argument vilket inte alls är i verkligheten för oss i västvärlden. Argumenten är även väldigt problematiska och faller ihop när man analyserar dom. Ingen bok jag skulle rekommendera för unga kvinnor med en feministisk ideologi.

En av de bästa författarna i vår tid! Hon förklarar tydligt, enkelt och begripligt var problemen ligger, vad som kan göras för att förändra och förbättra - och varför fler än vad de tror faktiskt är feminister.

Everything she says in the book makes sense to me as a woman. This is exactly why everyone has to be a feminist, but not the radical kind... It's about gender equality while considering biological differences, period.

This is a very short and concise introduction to feminism, but it misses the mark slightly. Most of what was said is highly important but the focus lies heavy on the heteronormativa structure. We need an intersectional feminism.

Väldigt bra bok för de som vill veta mer om vad feminism innebär och varför det är viktigt att ta ställning i frågan för att skapa en mer jämnställd värld för oss alla.
