Ragazze, non c'è più tempo da perdere: bisogna fare la rivoluzione. Viviamo in una società che purtroppo non è ancora paritaria fra i sessi in termini di rispetto, opportunità, trattamento. Se nel Novecento sono stati fatti enormi passi avanti per le donne, dagli anni '80 in poi il femminismo si è come addormentato, mentre il successo ha continuato a essere per lo più riservato ai maschi e in tv apparivano ballerine svestite e senza voce. La violenza sulle donne non si è mai fermata e chi denuncia le molestie tuttora corre rischi e prova vergogna. Ecco perché oggi è giunto il momento che le ragazze di ogni età raccolgano il testimone delle loro nonne e bisnonne per fare una rivoluzione epocale.

"Parlare con un sessista è come giocare a scacchi con un piccione". La maggior parte delle volte non siamo noi a scegliere le parole che usiamo: il nostro linguaggio, fatto per lo più di stereotipi, modi di dire e luoghi comuni, deriva da una cultura patriarcale preesistente a noi. In questo audiolibro Lorenzo Gasparrini analizza e studia le forme del linguaggio sessista, da dove hanno tratto origine e come sono cambiate negli anni, e in che modo i femminismi abbiano portato avanti su questo tema le battaglie per la parità.

A growing number of intrepid Arab and Middle Eastern sahafiyat - female journalists - are working tirelessly to shape nuanced narratives about their changing homelands, often risking their lives on the front lines of war.
