Fighting Mad is a book about what "reproductive justice" means and what it looks like to fight for it. Editors Krystale E. Littlejohn and Rickie Solinger bring together many of the strongest, most resistant voices in the country to describe the impacts of the Supreme Court's Dobbs decision on abortion access and care. The essayists and change agents gathered in Fighting Mad represent a remarkable breadth of expertise: activists and artists, academics and abortion storytellers, health care professionals and legislators, clinic directors and lawyers, and so many more. They discuss abortion restrictions and strategies to provide care, the impacts of criminalization, efforts to protect the targeted, shortcomings of the past, and visions for the next generation. Fighting Mad captures for the social and historical record the vigorous resistance happening in the early post-Roe moment to show that there are millions on the ground fighting to secure a better future.

Book excerpt: From an award-winning scholar, a vibrant portrait of a pivotal moment in the history of the feminist movement From the declaration of the "Year of the Woman" to the televising of Anita Hill's testimony, from Bitch magazine to SisterSong's demands for reproductive justice: the 90s saw the birth of some of the most lasting aspects of contemporary feminism. Historian Lisa Levenstein tracks this time of intense and international coalition building, one that centered on the growing influence of lesbians, women of color, and activists from the global South.

Download or read book Self Sabotage written by Greg Bennett and published by eBookIt.com. This book was released on 2013-05-22 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why do salespeople quit just when they're starting to succeed? Why do they sabotage their best efforts and regulate their way back down into their "comfort zones"? Why and how do peers, family, and "friends" work to support the self-sabotaging behaviors (even though they may not mean to)? These questions are tough to answer because the affliction itself doesn't make much sense – why would anyone work to destroy their own success? the reality is that many people do exactly that; they simply can't handle the success they're experiencing and seek to undo it using some very clever (and often hidden) strategies for "staying in struggle". In this book, Greg Bennett, a renowned sales trainer and coach, will address five ways salespeople sabotage themselves through self-destructive behaviors, and the counter strategies these salespeople (and their managers) can apply to stop the destruction before it's too late. Each segment on a self-destructive behavior includes a worksheet with strategies and exercises for salespeople to use, as well as several tips and ideas for sales managers who want to recognize these behaviors and work to keep their salespeople on a more positive path.
