Women & Power: A Manifesto by Mary Beard

informative reflective fast-paced

4.25

the way politics and history and even language interlinks to suppress and disregard the ideas of women is very intriguing, and mind-numbingly painful. this was a very insightful manifesto and i’d definitely recommend it- especially since it’s such a short read/listen. “for a start it doesn’t much matter what line you take as a woman, if you venture into traditional male territory, the abuse comes anyway. it is not what you say that prompts it, it’s simply the fact that you’re saying it.”
