Requests:  0 Summary:  Urgent, timely, and original, The Bonobo Sisterhood harnesses the power of the #MeToo movement into a road map for sex equality in humans. Our closest evolutionary cousins, the bonobos have a unique social order in which the females protect one another from male aggression. The takeaway? Evolutionarily, bonobos have eliminated sexual coercion and enjoy a more peaceful, cooperative, and playful existence. We have much to learn from them. Rosenfeld explores the implications of the bonobo model for human societies and systems of governance. How did law develop to elude women's rights so consistently? What difference does it make that we live in a patriarchal democracy? And what do bonobos have to offer as living proof that patriarchy is not inevitable? Most important, how can women break down barriers among themselves to unleash their power as a unified force? Rosenfeld has answers. The Bonobo Sisterhood takes us through real-life stories from the courtroom to the classroom and beyond, charting a new vision of a collective self-defense among women and their allies. It offers an action plan accessible to everyone immediately. This is an open invitation to anyone who wants to challenge the status quo. It starts with the power inherent in each of us knowing that we have selves worth defending, and awakening that power for ourselves and for our sisters. We now have a new model for real change, Rosenfeld reminds us. It's time to use it. The Bonobo Sisterhood forges a path to create and discover a new meaning of equality, liberty, and justice for all.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hana P/S Library Adult Nonfiction 362.88082 Ro Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Social Science & Philosophy 362.88082 Ro Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 362.88082 Rosenfeld Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kailua Public Library Adult Nonfiction 362.88082 Ro Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kapaa Public Library Adult Nonfiction 362.88082 Ro Checked In Add Copy to MyList Koloa P/S Library Adult Nonfiction 362.88082 Ro Checked In Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Nonfiction 362.88082 Ro Checked In Add Copy to MyList Thelma Parker Memorial P/S Library Adult Nonfiction 362.88082 Ro Checked In Add Copy to MyList Waikiki-Kapahulu Public Library Adult Nonfiction 362.88082 Ro Checked In Add Copy to MyList
