DescriptionThe most comprehensive collection of feminist manifestos, chronicling our rage and dreams from the nineteenth century to today In this landmark collection spanning three centuries and four waves of feminist activism and writing, Burn It Down is a testament to what is possible when women are driven to the edge. The manifesto--raging and wanting, quarreling and provoking--has always played a central role in feminism, and its the angry, brash feminism we need now. Collecting over seventy-five manifestos from around the world, Burn It Down is a rallying cry and a call to action. Among this confrontational sisterhood, youll find - Dyke Manifesto by the Lesbian Avengers - The Ax Tampax Poem Feministo by the Bloodsisters Project - The Manifesto of Apocalyptic Witchcraft by Peter Grey - Simone de Beauvoirs pro-abortion Manifesto of the 343 - Double Jeopardy: To Be Black and Female by Frances M. Beal - The Futurist Manifesto of Lust by Valentine de Saint-Point - Zapatista Womens Revolutionary Laws - Riot Grrrl Manifesto by Bikini Kill - Anarchy and the Sex Question by Emma Goldman Breanne Fahs argues that we need manifestos in all their urgent rawness--their insistence that we have to act now, that we must face this, that the bleeding edge of rage and defiance ignites new and revolutionary possibilities is where new ideas are born.About the AuthorBreanne Fahs is Professor of Women and Gender Studies at Arizona State University.
