Short Takes: Rage Becomes Her

In the lastest Short Takes, Shoshanna Ehrlich, Holloway Sparks, Jamia Wilson, and Andi Zeisler discuss Soraya Chemaly’s Rage Becomes Her: The Power of Women’s Anger. They discuss the politics of public emotions, the gendered and racialized norms of expressing anger, and the dangers of reactionary rage. In her response, Chemaly reflects on her motivations for writing the books and what she hoped to achieve.

Short Takes: Provocations on Public Feminism is a part of the Feminist Public Intellectuals Project.

Winter 2019

The Winter 2019 issue of Signs is now available online. Articles challenge conventional framings in diverse realms—from the term “gender neutrality” to the maternal body to women’s agency. Feminist orthodoxies, too, are questioned, in pieces that reexamine assumptions about “rescue” narratives and about feminist theologian Mary Daly. And several essays engage with narrative and storytelling, treating the lived experiences of migrant women in Italian detention centers, the Nepalese traditions of storytelling, and the ways in which some practitioners of queer BDSM engage their own histories of trauma.
