Reclaiming Our Space
Author: Feminista Jones
Publisher: Beacon Press
ISBN: 0807055387
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 202
Book Description
A treatise of Black women’s transformative influence in media and society, placing them front and center in a new chapter of mainstream resistance and political engagement In Reclaiming Our Space, social worker, activist, and cultural commentator Feminista Jones explores how Black women are changing culture, society, and the landscape of feminism by building digital communities and using social media as powerful platforms. As Jones reveals, some of the best-loved devices of our shared social media language are a result of Black women’s innovations, from well-known movement-building hashtags (#BlackLivesMatter, #SayHerName, and #BlackGirlMagic) to the now ubiquitous use of threaded tweets as a marketing and storytelling tool. For some, these online dialogues provide an introduction to the work of Black feminist icons like Angela Davis, Barbara Smith, bell hooks, and the women of the Combahee River Collective. For others, this discourse provides a platform for continuing their feminist activism and scholarship in a new, interactive way. Complex conversations around race, class, and gender that have been happening behind the closed doors of academia for decades are now becoming part of the wider cultural vernacular—one pithy tweet at a time. With these important online conversations, not only are Black women influencing popular culture and creating sociopolitical movements; they are also galvanizing a new generation to learn and engage in Black feminist thought and theory, and inspiring change in communities around them. Hard-hitting, intelligent, incisive, yet bursting with humor and pop-culture savvy, Reclaiming Our Space is a survey of Black feminism’s past, present, and future, and it explains why intersectional movement building will save us all.

“Nasty Women” — Reclaiming the Power of Female Aggression
Author: Janet Rivkin Zuckerman, Ph.D.
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 104018460X
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 171
Book Description
This book addresses the fraught relationship between women and aggression, one troubled by age-old patriarchal forces that disparage women’s ambition, assertion, and voice. Told from a psychoanalytic perspective, the book details the sociocultural forces that infect a woman’s intrapsychic dynamics and compel her to sacrifice her goals and dreams. Compelling examples are offered from current politics, the author’s own struggles with aggression, and clinical work with female patients who successfully reclaimed their aggression. The book addresses the critical question of how a woman can ever succeed, through the presentation of the author’s detailed and psychoanalytically informed interviews with six powerful and highly influential women. Each woman brings to life the story of her history, influences, and challenges to provide inspiration for others to reimagine their own “nastiness,” as an innovative, vitalizing tool. This book is distinguished by its unique blend of contemporary life, psychoanalytic practice, feminist theory and gender studies, untold in any other forum or publication. It is essential reading for psychoanalysts, psychotherapists, and all those interested in working with women in a therapeutic setting and understanding their challenges with aggression.

Category : Health & Fitness
Languages : en
Pages : 339
Book Description
Menopause can impact a woman’s life in a variety of ways—the experiences of which are as varied and unique as each woman who is experiencing them. Nurse Barb wants every woman to know that this is no longer their grand mothers’ generation—there’s no need to just accept whatever comes their way. Vitality, zest, and yes, a sexy outlook on life are within every woman’s reach. The Hot Guide to a Cool Sexy Menopause is an extension of what Nurse Barb offers her own patients—which is relatable information, easy-to-understand explanations, and a varied menu of options. The author doesn’t believe in telling women what to do when the hormonal roller coaster of menopause presents a challenge. Instead, she believes in helping women find their own best path to total health. Menopause isn’t the end, nor is it something to be endured like a root canal. Menopause is a new beginning, and it can be one of the most rewarding times in a woman’s life. There’s a great deal to look forward to during this part of the journey and beyond. Nurse Barb provides a wealth of advice to guide you along your way. Each chapter of the book covers a different aspect of the menopause transition. Rounding out the practical information are true-life stories about women who have experienced the physical, emotional, and spiritual challenges and how they navigated this journey, growing stronger, more empowered, and healthier. A cool and sexy menopause is just a read away!

The Vital Spark
Author: Lisa Marchiano, LCSW, NCPsyA
Publisher: Sounds True
ISBN: 1649631014
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 331
Book Description
A renowned Jungian analyst shares a call to action for women who dream of reuniting with their brilliant, creative, and fiercely independent nature. Within every woman lies a powerful force: a vibrant, sizzling spirit that lives life to the fullest. For so many of us, the burdens of responsibility, caretaking, and social expectations cause us to bury this essential part of ourselves under six feet of niceness. Yet as Jungian analyst Lisa Marchiano says, “Our inner flame of embodied wisdom, sharp-witted cunning, burning passion, and empowered confidence is never truly extinguished.” With The Vital Spark, she invites us on an immersive journey to reclaim the split-off parts of ourselves that enliven and rejuvenate us—and allow us to become who we were meant to be. Combining personal stories, intercultural mythology, and guidance for inner exploration, Marchiano shares invaluable resources for breaking free from the conditioning that has kept us confined to rigid roles and muffled the sound of our souls. Here she invites us to explore eight core aspects of ourselves: shrewdness, disagreeableness, desire, trickiness, sexuality, anger, authority, and ruthlessness. Each chapter reinforces the truth of our relentlessly human narrative in the truest sense—allowing us to retrieve our “outlaw” energies, our discarded talents, and the deepest parts of our authentic selves. “When we try to domesticate our wild, assertive, and liberated spirit,” says Marchiano, “she flies away to some shadowy part of our soul, where she waits for us to find her again. Though she can be a bit savage and uncivilized, she is also the very best of us—and what we need to become whole.” The Vital Spark is a guide to recovering our courageous inner spirit so we can access her wisdom, her fire, and her burning aliveness.
