 \nWHEELCHAIR ACCESS\n\nThe founder and creative director of Bitch magazine 
 argues that pop culture has co-opted the feminist movement and transformed 
 it into something unrecognizable and dysfunctional.  While we've been 
 watching and forwarding Amy Schumer's videos, Republicans have twice voted 
 against an act to close the gendered wage gap, the U.S. remains one of only 
 two world nations to not offer paid maternity leave, and access to abortion 
 clinics is rapidly growing more difficult. \n\nThis increasingly looks not 
 like a world that has finally emerged into a fully realized feminism, but 
 like a world in which glossy, flirty feminism with you-go-girl tweets and 
 Instagram photos has reduced feminism from a collective goal to a consumer 
 brand.\n\nDefining "feminist" as 'a woman who lives the life she chooses' 
 is great if you're a woman who already has choices. It does nothing 
 whatsoever for the millions of women far from the campus, waiting in vain 
 for empowerment.\n\n"This is a razor sharp new book." -The 
 Guardian\n\n"Nuanced, smart, and funny." - In These Times\n\nAya De Leon is 
 a poet, academic, activist, slam-poetry champ and Harvard graduate. She 
 sees herself as bridging cultural communities, and brings a background in 
 spoken word and hip-hop to her job as a UC Berkeley African American 
 studies professor and coordinator of a campus-to-community partnership 
 called Poetry for the People.\n\nSabrina Jacobs is the host and producer of 
 A Rude Awakening, a cultural and political affairs show aired weekly on 
 KPFA.\n\n$12 advance, $15 door.\n
