A Teenager's Guide to Feminism

A powerful collection featuring contributions by feminists from all walks of life, A Teenager's Guide to Feminism is aimed at helping today's teens navigate the confusing and sometimes controversial topics surrounding what it means to be a feminist. Essays, letters, and poems range in topic from things we wish we could go back and tell our teenage selves, teens' hopes and dreams for the future, things we would like to tell our mothers and other strong women who shaped us, the changing ideologies around what it means to be a woman, to sexuality, beauty standards, and self-expression in a post #metoo world. The book shares stories of love, heartbreak, resilience, determination, and learning to love ourselves. Most of all, it's a book for teens, designed to encourage them to define their own ideas of modern feminism and the female experience in a changing world.
