Rebel Women Speak

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Rebel Women Speak brings together over eighty great female speakers from the last 120 years. From Clara Campoamor’s address that secured Spanish women the vote, to Dolores Huerta’s rallying call that changed American labour laws, and Julia Gillard’s searing critique that updated the definition of misogyny, these are the words of radical women who have changed history.

Set alongside context that explains the significance and influence of each speaker, the speeches are designed to inspire readers to take action and speak up for what they believe in. The final chapter of the book, compiled by writer and activist Rebecca Davis, offers practical, accessible advice for being an activist, whether that means speaking out at school or the workplace, writing to your local representatives, or joining a campaign group.

Rebel Women Speak is the ultimate inspirational resource for anyone who cares about making the world a better place.
