""Manifesta" is a breath of fresh air. At last, Gen X takes on feminism and revamps a feminist manifesto for a new era. A jolt, a resource, a timeline, and a challenge, "Manifesta" is a readable, well-informed, and necessary to any young woman--or man--who craves gender equality."--Naomi Wolf "[The authors] have sorted out the fruits of this wave of feminism--intended and unintended, media mess and truth--for a new generation. With wit and honesty, "Manifesta" shows us the building blocks of the future of this longest revolution."--Gloria Steinem "Great news from the front--feminism lives! Bold, independent, generous, and cautionary, "Manifesta" leaves no doubt that for a new generation of women the F-word is not only speakable but shoutable and singable. To learn the tune and catch the beat, read this book."--Alix Kates Shulman ""Manifesta "is another step toward the empowerment of women. If caring about women matters, this book matters."--Andrea Dworkin "A reasoned and passionate call to action and an exciting how-to guide for both burgeoning and seasoned Third Wave feminists."--Eleanor J. Bader, "Library Journal " ""Manifesta is a breath of fresh air. At last, Gen X takes on feminism and revamps a feminist manifesto for a new era.

In this indictment of the current state of feminism, the authors describe the seven deadly sins the media commits against feminism, provide the keys to accessible and urgent activism, discuss why the ERA is still a relevant goal, and spell out what a world with equality would look like.
