Letters from a War Zone by Andrea Dworkin
5.0
(reread) i will think about this book everyday for the rest of my life, Dworkin has such a way of writing about being a woman in this world that makes me so emotional. i carry her words and her testimonies with me.
“Violence Against Women: It Breaks the Heart, Also the Bones” echoes in my brain. “Pornography and Male Supermacy” is even more relevant today than ever with porn being everywhere and being promoted by so called “feminists”. “Letters From A Warzone” is so profound. Finally, Her analysis of literature is beautiful and thoughtful.
i love you andrea dworkin thank you for everything
“I can't tell you how brave and brilliant the resisters are. Or how powerless and hurt. Surely it is clear: the most powerless women, the most exploited women, are the women fighting the pornographers. Our more privileged sisters prefer not to take sides. It's a nasty fight, all right. Feminism is dying here because so many women who say they are feminists are collaborators or cowards. Feminism is magnificent and militant here because the most powerless women are putting their lives on the line to confront the most powerful men for the sake of all women. Be proud of us for fighting. Be proud of us for getting so far. Help us if you can. The pornographers will have to stop us. We will not give in. They know that and now so do you.
Love,
Andrea Dworkin”
