In this personal, eloquently-argued essay—adapted from the much-admired TEDx talk of the same name—Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie offers readers a unique definition of feminism for the twenty-first century. Drawing extensively on her own experiences and her deep understanding of the often masked realities of sexual politics, here is one remarkable author’s exploration of what it means to be a woman now—and an of-the-moment rallying cry for why we should all be feminists.

every word spoke to me

Too short but so beautiful.
For some reason the sound seemed much lower on this recording than typical for Audible.

Not what i expected

This book was recommended to me by a member of a book club I’m in. I was skeptical about it thinking it would be a rant about women’s rights filled with vitriol and anger like so many women’s rights books. It was nothing like that and I am so glad I got it. I’ve never thought of myself as a Feminist but from Chimamanda’s viewpoint she the blew the stereotypical definition out of the water. In her eyes I am a feminist.

Absolutely amazing

Highly recommend to men and women! We should all be feminist and that’s the simple truth!

WE means men and women

This is an insightful quick listen/read for everyone. An interesting perspective from an intelligent author about the meaning of feminism. She provides some very good suggestions about how we can help our children, too. Well worth a listen.

Thank you Chimamanda

A ton of relatable information in this piece. Thank you for helping me as I unlearn some of the things that are stuck in my head today just because I was raised as a girl child in a society where women are seen in the shadow of the man next to them. If you do not have a man, you are almost invisible! Great listen!
