Media Reviews
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
