Synopsis

WHAT WOULD A WORLD THAT MATCHED YOUR VALUES LOOK LIKE?

Abortion, the economy, sex and work are among the topics these incredible authors and thinkers believe will make the world a better place for women.


In this ground-breaking collection, more than 50 cutting-edge voices invite us to imagine a truly feminist world. An abortion provider reinvents birth control, Sheila Bapat envisions an economy that values domestic work, a teenage rock band dreams up a new way to make music, Katherine Cross rewrites the Constitution and Maya Dusenbery resets the standard for good sex.

Combining essays, interviews, poetry, illustrations and short stories, THE FEMINIST UTOPIA PROJECT challenges the status quo that accepts inequality and violence as a given - and inspires us to demand a radically better future.

Featuring contributions from Melissa Harris-Perry, Janet Mock, Sheila Heti, Mia McKenzie and many more.
