Rage becomes her : the power of women's anger / Soraya Chemaly.

Chemaly, Soraya L., (author.).

Summary:

"A new, conversation-shifting book that encourages women to own their anger and use it as a tool for positive change, written by one of today's most influential feminist thinkers"-- Provided by publisher.
Women are angry: we are underpaid and overworked; too sensitive, or not sensitive enough; too dowdy or too flashy. Chemaly believes that, contrary to entire lifetimes of being told otherwise, our rage is one of the most important resources we have, our sharpest tool against both personal and political oppression. Anger is a vital instrument, a radar for injustice and a catalyst for change. The societal and cultural belittlement of our anger is a way of limiting and controlling our power. -- adapted from jacket.
