I am a senior in high school and for an independent study class, I am required to compile a list of recommended books about and pertaining to feminism. Any help you could provide would be appreciated. - Emma

To begin your recommended reading list--have you tried the Feminist.com bookstore? This is a very comprehensive list of books that we recommend. For a short list, you should include:

1.) Backlash by Susan Faludi
2.) Listen Up edited by Barbara Findlen
3.) Ain't I A Woman by bell hooks
4.) Outrageous Acts and Everyday Rebellions by Gloria Steinem
5.) Ms. magazine
6.) The Reader's Companion to U.S. Women's History
7.) This Bridge Called Back by Anzulada and Moraga - Amy
