10 essential feminist books, according to Kindle.
The image of a woman in one of the different feminist rallies that have happened over the last few years holding a sign that read "I can't believe that I still have to continue protesting this" has been going around the world for years, precisely because he found the words that best express that feeling of disbelief entailed by the fact that in the 21st century the equality , instead of being celebrated or assumed as something obvious, continues to have to be sued as if it were not a fundamental right.
Several decades of active advocacy and many centuries of 'forgotten women' later, the feminist literature continues to be the best antidote against disbelief and misinformation; also a way to continue learning about feminism. Therefore, on the occasion of International Women's Day , Kindle has compiled the ten books published over the past year that everyone should read.
