Global Women of Color, 2013: Reading Challenge 04 Jan 2013


From the blog

Women of color around the globe are writing some amazing books. Their voices can give us insight into the lives of those outside our usual boundaries. Feminists especially need to listen to them if they want to understand their concerns.

We encourage everyone to participate in this fantastic Reading Challenge throughout 2013.

And, of course, Spinifex has plenty of books that meet the challenge criteria.
