On the Move: Feminism for the Next Generation Book

In this book more than a dozen young writers outline their vision of the feminist future. Oona King, Britain's second black woman MP, tells us why feminism matters in government; Helen Wilkinson writes on Thatcher's liberating relationship with power; Stephanie Theobald gives us a darkly humorous attack on lesbian chic; Julie Bindel uncovers the dangers women still face in their own homes; Katharine Viner reminds us why the personal is still the political; novelist Livi Micheal's vivid portrayal of working-class women's lives is backed by Aminatta Forna's piece on why middle-class women are wrong to abandon feminism; novelist and playwright Jenny McLeod offers a personal view of the journey of the black woman in her family; Helen Simpson's short story is a gently hilarious look at motherhood; and five young girls tell us frankly and fearlessly what feminism means to them.Read More
