Review: We Were Feminists Once: From Riot Grrrl to CoverGirl, the Buying and Selling of a Political Movement

We Were Feminists Once: From Riot Grrrl to CoverGirl, the Buying and Selling of a Political Movement We Were Feminists Once: From Riot Grrrl to CoverGirl, the Buying and Selling of a Political Movement by Andi Zeisler
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Nice look at feminism's history (like it was once okay to fire a woman for being "too pretty" and a threat someone's marriage). And later branding. Once a dirty word, it was later embraced to sell shit. Written prior to Trump's 2016 election, feminism is once again a dirty,"woke" word among some groups of people. And for others it means what it has always meant.
Feminism: to believe in women and men's equality in economic, social, and political matters.
