PRAISE FOR MANIFESTA!
An important contribution to the subject . . . Simpatico older women will be heartened by the authors' knowledgeable discussion of pro-woman attitudes and actions among the younger set, while girls and young women may find political or personal inspiration in their account.
— Kirkus Reviews

A breath of fresh air—at last, Gen X takes on feminism and creates a feminist manifesto for a new generation . . . MANIFESTA is readable, well-informed, and necessary to any young woman—or man—who craves gender equality.
— Naomi Wolf, author of The Beauty Myth

Amy Richards and Jennifer Baumgardner have sorted out the fruits of this wave of feminism—intended and unintended, media mess and truth—for a new generation. With wit and honesty, MANIFESTA shows us the building blocks of the future of this longest revolution.
— Gloria Steinem

Great news from the front—feminism lives! Bold, independent, generous, and cautionary, MANIFESTA leaves no doubt that for a new generation of women the F-word is not only speakable, but shoutable and singable. To learn the tune and catch the beat, read this book.
— Alix Kates Shulman

The best thing about MANIFESTA is that it isn't one. It puts forth the dualities, contractions, and schisms of conscious women with intelligence, humor, and passion. Bless the young feminist/girlie/c*nts, we need them to keep peeling back the layers of our denial and our liberation.
— Eve Ensler, author of The Vagina Monologues

MANIFESTA is another step toward the empowerment of women. If caring about women matters, this book matters.
— Andrea Dworkin

Richards and Baumgardner have spent years as participants in and observers of the feminist movement, and now they have their say, asking new questions and coming up with provocative answers. They do it with wit, confidence, and superior insight. MANIFESTA will reinvigorate armchair feminists and recharge activists of all ages.
— Barbara Findlen, editor of Listen Up: Voices from the Next Feminist Generation

MANIFESTA is an exciting and important contribution to the growing body of Third Wave literature. Richards and Baumgardner speak the language of a new generation of feminists, proving once again that young women are committed to continuing to work passionately for social justice.
—Rebecca Walker, editor of To Be Real: Telling the Truth and Changing the Face of Feminism
