In this landmark collection spanning three centuries and four waves of feminist activism and writing, Burn It Down! is a testament to what is possible when women are driven to the edge. The manifesto-raging and wanting, quarreling and provoking-has always played a central role in feminism, and it's the angry, brash feminism we need now.
Collecting over 75 manifestos from around the world, Burn It Down! is a rallying cry and a call to action. Among this confrontational sisterhood, you'll find
Dyke Manifesto by the Lesbian Avengers
The Ax Tampax Poem Feministo by the Bloodsisters Project
The Manifesto of Apocalyptic Witchcraft by Peter Grey
Simone de Beauvoir's pro-abortion Manifesto of the 343
Double Jeopardy: To Be Black and Female by Frances M. Beal
The Futurist Manifesto of Lust by Valentine de Saint-Point
Zapatista Women's Revolutionary Laws
Riot Grrrl Manifesto by Bikini Kill
Anarchy and the Sex Question by Emma Goldman
Breanne Fahs argues that we need manifestos in all their urgent rawness-their insistence that we have to act now, that we must face this, that the bleeding edge of rage and defiance ignites new and revolutionary possibilities is where new ideas are born.
