DESCRIPTION:Roxanne Dunbar Ortiz and Breanne Fahs talk about their writings on radical 
 women.  This event will feature Breanne Fahs' "Valerie Solanas: The Defiant 
 Life of the Woman who Wrote SCUM (and Shot Andy Warhol)" by Breanne Fahs, 
 Feminist Press, 2014\n\nToo drastic, too crazy, too "out there," too early, 
 too late, too damaged, too much: Valerie Solanas has been dismissed but 
 never forgotten. She has become, unwittingly, a figurehead for women's 
 unexpressed rage, and stands at the center of many worlds. She inhabited 
 Andy Warhol's Factory scene, circulated among feminists and the 
 countercultural underground, charged men money for conversation, despised 
 "daddy's girls," and outlined a vision for radical gender dystopia. Known 
 for shooting Andy Warhol in 1968 and for writing the polemical diatribe 
 SCUM Manifesto, Solanas is one of the most famous women of her era. SCUM 
 Manifesto which predicted ATMs, test-tube babies, the Internet, and 
 artificial insemination long before they existed has sold more copies, and 
 has been translated into more languages, than nearly all other feminist 
 texts of its time.\n\nThis book is the first biography about Solanas, 
 including original interviews with family, friends (and enemies), and 
 numerous living Warhol associates. \n
