Hi everyone! Our next book will be 'Feminism or Death: How the Women's Movement Can Save the Planet' by Françoise d'Eaubonne.
Originally published in French in 1974, radical feminist Francoise d’Eaubonne surveyed women’s status around the globe and argued that the stakes of feminist struggle were not about equality but about life and death—for humans and the planet.
In this wide-ranging manifesto, d’Eaubonne first proposed a politics of ecofeminism, the idea that the patriarchal system's claim over women's bodies and the natural world destroys both, and that feminism and environmentalism must bring about a new 'mutation'—an overthrow of not just male power but the system of power itself.
As d’Eaubonne prophesied, "the planet placed in the feminine will flourish for all."
