Run, don't walk, to your nearest book seller or library and get a copy of this slim, salient study of the specific evils of capitalism and the actionable ways that anticapitalist feminism proposes to redress them.

Arrruzza, et al, quickly sketch the bankruptcy of liberal feminism that "confuses feminism with the assent of individual women," and "steadfastly refuses to address the socioeconomic constraints that make freedom and empowerment impossible for the majority of women."

The writers also address issues of reproduction of labor, gender violence, and the environment.

This is one to own, underline, re-read and discuss with your book group.

Unha obra moi interesante e acertada para seguir aprendendo. O manifesto remata con estas verbas: "O feminismo para o 99% é un feminismo anticapitalista que non descansa, un feminismo ao que non lle valen as equivalencias sen igualdade, os dereitos legais sen xustiza, nin a democracia sen unha liberdade individual que realmente supoña a liberdade de todas as persoas".… (meer)

Great polemic against liberal, neoliberal feminism which sustains existing inequalities and a call for an anti-capitalist, more inclusionary form of feminism.
