Feminist Resources INTRODUCTION This document provides a varied list of feminist resources, including academic readings in feminist theory as well as accessible blog articles, videos, zines/comics, and organizations. Be aware feminism is composed of a diverse group of individuals and a diverse range of discourse, and there have been and still are many debates within feminism. In an attempt to organize the expansive list, I have arranged sources by category. Because of my own scholarly location, this list does tend to be US-centric (especially in regards to historical work listed). However, I have made an effort to include intersectional, transnational, and global feminist work. I have included some work that is not explicitly feminist, but which speaks to women’s history or studies of sexuality/gender in important ways. This list also includes several foundational readings which have been critiqued since their publication; despite this, I felt it was important to provide resources that capture the way feminism has evolved over time [with a focus on the last fifty years specifically]. I often link to amazon.com so you can read reviews and use the “look inside” feature for books. With that said, I encourage ordering any books through your local bookstore. ​ ​ ​ ​ KEY Book or article resource Blog, magazine article, or other accessible resource Multimedia resource (zine, graphic novel, video, podcast, or music) ⬤ ⬤ ⬤ Last Updated: 02/25/2017 ​ Compiled by: Amara Miller (http://amaralmiller.wixsite.com/educator) ​ ​ ​ Feminist Resources Feminist Resources TABLE OF CONTENTS What is Feminism?
