        »Ich habe etwas zu sagen«

        Frauen, die das Wort ergreifen

        by Rita Kohlmaier, Stevie Schmiedel

        Immer mehr Frauen wagen den öffentlichen Protest und den Aufstand: Gemeinsam marschieren sie und protestieren gegen ungleiche Bezahlung und ungleiche Bildungschancen, eine übermächtige Waffenlobby, Rassismus oder sexuelle Gewalt. Sie ergreifen das Wort und ihre klaren Botschaften inspirieren (nicht nur) Mädchen und Frauen, Haltung zu beziehen und sich für ihre Rechte deutlicher denn je einzusetzen. In diesem Buch werden charismatische, unbequeme und couragierte Frauen vorgestellt, die mit ihren Reden und öffentlichen Aktionen die Welt verändert haben oder genau jetzt verändern. Viel zu lange haben Frauen nur gelesen und geschrieben und wirkten lange im Hintergrund oder ganz im Verborgenen. Väter, Brüder, der liebe Gott und eine patriarchale Politik bestimmten über ihr Wohl und Wehe, ihren Körper und Geist, ihren Freiraum und dessen Begrenzung. Schluss damit! Mitreißend geschriebene Porträts über Michelle Obama, Angelina Jolie, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Malala Yousafzai, Oprah Winfrey, Emma González, ebenso über Rosa Luxemburg, Waltraud Schoppe, Rosa Parks u. v. m.
