WHAT WE CAN DO IN THE STRUGGLE FOR REPRODUCTIVE JUSTICE INTRODUCTION The term reproductive justice was introduced in the 1990s by a group of American Women of Color,1 who had attended the 1994 Inter- national Conference on Population and Development (ICPD), which was sponsored by the United Nations and is known as “the Cairo conference.” 2 After listening to debates by representatives of the gov- ernments of UN nation states about how to slow population growth and encourage the use of contraceptives and the extent to which women’s reproductive rights could/should be guaranteed, the group realized, as Loretta Ross later wrote, that “[o]ur ability to control what happens to our bodies is constantly challenged by poverty, racism, en- vironmental degradation, sexism, homophobia, and injustice . -

Finally Become Global Or Just Another Product of Neoliberal Feminism?
#MeToo – Has the ‘sisterhood’ finally become global or just another product of neoliberal feminism? Farnush Ghadery [email protected] LSS, Law School London South Bank University Abstract: The article discusses the #MeToo movement by reflecting on its origins and recent developments to consider its position within feminist theory. On the one hand, the cross- border proliferation of this hashtag revived the question once posed by liberal feminist Robin Morgan: Has the ‘sisterhood’ finally become global? Others questioned the deeper meaning of the ‘me’ as part of #MeToo, wondering whether the need for individual responsibility to come forward indicates that the movement fits only too well with what has been coined neoliberal feminism. Disagreeing with both categorisations, the article positions #MeToo as a transnational feminist consciousness-raising endeavour which can be traced across different places worldwide. Referring to some of these contextualised uses of #MeToo, the article argues that #MeToo has been able to manifest itself as a transnational feminist phenomenon, as it has allowed groups in distinct spaces and localities to take ownership of the varying manifestations of #MeToo. Keywords: #metoo – feminism – feminist legal theory – sexual harassment – digital activism – transnational movements – transnational law #MeToo – Has the ‘sisterhood’ finally become global or just another product of neoliberal feminism? Farnush Ghadery I. Introduction It is now a year and a half ago that the revelation of sexual violence and harassment amongst the bold and the beautiful in Hollywood1 led to the hashtag ‘MeToo’ going viral. This event permitted the laywoman and layman to share their own story of sexual violence or to ‘just’ express that they, too, have been subjected to forms of sexual abuse by tweeting or sharing on Facebook, Instagram and other forms of social media the now famous expression of #MeToo. -

The Politics of Grace Paley's Short Fiction
Napalm and After: The Politics of Grace Paley’s Short Fiction JUDIE NEWMAN University of Nottingham I object not to facts but to people sitting in trees talking senselessly, voices from who knows where. (‘A Conversation with my Father’)1 Grace Paley’s commitment to political radicalism has never been in much doubt. Comparatively few contemporary writers have accompanied Amer- ican POWs home from Hanoi, been arrested on the White House Lawn, or been dragged oV in shackles to serve time in the Greenwich Village Women’s House of Detention. Paley’s pacifist, socialist politics are also deeply rooted in a family past where memories were still fresh of Tsarist oppression — one uncle shot dead carrying the red flag, and parents who reached America only because the Tsar had a son and amnestied all political prisoners under the age of twenty-one. At this point, Paley’s father (imprisoned in Archangel) and her mother (in exile) took their chances (and all their surviving relatives) and very sensibly ran for their lives. Her grandmother recalled family arguments around the table between Paley’s father (Socialist), Uncle Grisha (Communist), Aunt Luba (Zionist), and Aunt Mira (also Communist). Paley’s own street-wise adolescence involved the usual teenage gang fights, between adherents of the Third and Fourth Internationals. Until recently, critics of Paley’s work have tended to focus upon gender politics, and upon the feminist form of her writing, with its communal narration, revisions of conventional genre, and restoration of women’s unwritten experience.2 The publication of Just As I Thought in 1998,a collection of Paley’s autobiographical pieces, has drawn attention back, however, to politics in the newspaper sense of the term.3 Reviews were, at best, mixed. -

June 11, 1992. Page 771 [79 N.Y.2d 675] [595 N.E.2d 846] Perry S. Reich, Steven M. Schapiro, Lindenhurst, and Mel Sirkin, New York City, for appellant. [79 N.Y.2d 677] Robert M. Morgenthau, Dist. Atty. (Mark Dwyer, Patricia Curran, Alan Gadlin, Paula Milazzo and Donald J. Siewert, New York City, of counsel), for respondent. [79 N.Y.2d 678] OPINION OF THE COURT KAYE, Judge. Defendant's appeal from a conviction of first degree manslaughter, involving the death of six-year-old Lisa Steinberg, centers on his contention that only a person with medical expertise can form the requisite intent to cause serious physical injury to a child by failing to obtain medical care. We conclude that this contention, as well as the several others defendant advances, lack merit, and that the Appellate Division order sustaining the conviction, 170 A.D.2d 50, 573 N.Y.S.2d 965, should be affirmed. I. In the evening of November 1, 1987, defendant and Hedda Nussbaum were at home in their one-bedroom Greenwich Village apartment, with their two "adopted" children, Lisa, then six years old, and Mitchell, 16 months old. Nussbaum was in the kitchen with Lisa while defendant dressed in the bedroom for his dinner appointment with a friend. Lisa went into the bedroom to ask defendant to take her with him. -

Does Feminism Discriminate Against Men? a Debate'
H-Histsex Lauritsen on Farrell and Svoboda and Sterba, 'Does Feminism Discriminate against Men? A Debate' Review published on Thursday, May 1, 2008 Warren Farrell, J. Steven Svoboda, James P. Sterba. Does Feminism Discriminate against Men? A Debate. New York: Oxford University Press, 2008. 258 pp. $39.95 (cloth), ISBN 978-0-19-531282-9; $17.95 (paper), ISBN 978-0-19-531283-6. Reviewed by John Lauritsen (Independent Scholar) Published on H-Histsex (May, 2008) Does Feminism Cause Injustice to Men? The title of this book is not ideal, though my own may be no better. Either way, we must first define "feminism" in order to discuss whether or not it injures the rights of men. One Trotskyist group makes a distinction between "women's liberation" (good) and "feminism" (bad). Christina Hoff Sommers distinguishes between "feminism" (good) and "gender feminism" (bad).[1] Camille Paglia describes herself as "absolutely a feminist," but sharply criticizes "PC feminism."[2] Wendy McElroy distinguishes three forms: "liberal feminism" (the ideology of the 1960s); "gender feminism" (the dogmatic, men-are-the-enemy form); and "individualist feminism" (her own preferred form).[3] The trouble is that very few people observe distinctions, and are likely to end up examining both the good and the bad aspects of a single ideology. In an interview with Steven Svoboda, Warren Farrell said: "I'm a 100 percent supporter of the portions of feminism that are empowering to women and a 100 percent opponent of the portions that hone victimhood as a fine art".[4] The title of the book is also misleading, as there is no true debate. -
