"Mothers are a force to be reckoned with. The Women's March and other recent activism have highlighted that moms are a key part of today's feminist movement. But for those of us who aren't ready to make a bid for the presidency, the way forward can seem daunting and unclear. Have no fear, Farrah Alexander, a writer, mother, and activist, is here. Whether it's correcting a misinformed family member about gender equality, running for political office, or helping your child understand consent, this bold, accessible, and often funny promer presents active parents with different types of activism they can incorporate into their parenting, no matter how big or small. WIth practical guidance, political commentary, and inspirations, this feminist manifesto for moms tackles problems from political representation to sexual misconduct. It doesn't just validate present-day feminist frustration, it also offers practical ways to channel it into solutions. Most importantly, it stresses that by planting seeds of empathy and political awareness in your children, you can raise your kids to be changemakers. You can raise them to resist."--Back cover.
