A review by alicedroni
Anarchist Feminists in the Philippines by Die Media Collective
3.75
(For context this book is not for me since I'm an American living in Europe)
I'm glad i stumbled upon this book, i can't say it was super useful or enlightening but I think it was really interesting to see a movement at the very begining of its life. Obviously my experience of anarcho-feminism is going to be drastically different in many ways to women growing up in the Philippines, but it's important to recognize what works across cultures, what doesn't and perhaps most importantly how the "white western woman's" feminism can actually make it harder for women elsewhere to get their own movements up and running.
