Includes bibliographical references and index.
Summary:
"In the age of girl bosses, Beyoncé, and Black Widow, we like to tell our little
girls
they can be anything they want when they grow up, except they’ll have to work twice as hard, be told to “play
nice
,” and face countless double standards that curb their personal, political, and economic
power
. Women today remain a surprisingly, depressingly long way from
gender
and racial equality. It’s worth asking:
Why
do we keep
playing
a game we were never meant to win? Award-winning journalist and author of F-Bomb: Dispatches from the War on Feminism, Lauren McKeon examines the many ways in which our institutions are designed to keep women and other marginalized genders at a disadvantage. In doing so, she reveals
why
we need
more
than parity, visible diversity, and lone female CEOs to change this
power
game. She talks to people doing
power
differently in a variety of sectors and uncovers new models of
power
. And as the toxic, divisive, and hyper-masculine style of leadership gains ground, she underscores
why
it’s
time
to
stop
playing
by the
rules
of a rigged game."
