<p>***Winner of an English PEN Award 2021***</p><p>'A vibrant and compelling framework for feminism in our times' - Judith Butler</p><p>For too long feminism has been co-opted by the forces they seek to dismantle. In this powerful manifesto, Francoise Verges argues that feminists should no longer be accomplices of capitalism,&#xa0;racism,&#xa0;colonialism and imperialism: it is time to fight the system that created the boss, built the prisons and polices womens bodies.<br><br><em>A Decolonial Feminism</em> grapples with the central issues in feminist debates today: from Eurocentrism and whiteness, to power, inclusion and exclusion. Delving into feminist and anti-racist histories, Verges also assesses contemporary activism, movements and struggles, including #MeToo and the Women's Strike.<br><br> Centring anticolonialism and anti-racism within an intersectional Marxist feminism, the book puts forward an urgent demand to free ourselves from the capitalist, imperialist forces that oppress us.</p>

A vital feminist manifesto from one of our most inspiring political voices
