She Proclaims by Jennifer Palmieri is one of those books that makes you see injustices & biases you have been blind to. And you can’t unsee them, once aware of it.

SYNOPSIS->
She Proclaims declares what most women know in their souls but have yet to say out loud- that they deserve something better than a life where men hold a vast majority of power and women continue to be undervalued. It is a manifesto for the second century of feminism that no longer chases a man’s elusive path but proclaims the value, ambition, and emotion women have had all along to change their world by changing how they engage in it.
•
REVIEW->
In She Proclaims, Jennifer takes examples & inspirations from historical Women heroines to portray how a Woman’s place in a Man’s world always needed to be fought for. It sheds light on how the workplace, politics & even sports are arenas that favour men and are built to propel their success, while Women have to strive to be “good enough” to fit in.
•
In short chapters, mimicking the Declaration of Independence, the book touches upon how & why Women should not be hesitant to show ambition, speak up, demand their place or advocate for themselves & each other. The writing did take a little while to get used to, but the book definitely inspired and angered me, thinking about how much more work Women have left to do!
