| Title | Vse bylo horosho, poka ne prishli feministki |
| Description | Activist, liberal feminist and creator of the online platforms Breaking Mad, Mayachok Antikhrista and Women’s Power, Zalina Marshenkulova has been involved in numerous public controversies exposing sexism in the Russian media. She has almost grown accustomed to receiving death threats. Yet these scandals have produced tangible results: sexist advertisements are withdrawn, companies apologise, and society gradually learns to distinguish barbarity from acceptable public conduct. Without voices like hers, advertising and the media might still routinely describe women as “skins”, compare them to dogs, or portray them on their knees and suggestively sucking objects.
This book recounts the history of the feminist movement in Russia since 2010 from Zalina’s own perspective. The events themselves matter as much as society’s response to them. The Pussy Riot case, the #MeToo movement, the harassment of feminists, the decriminalisation of domestic violence and the Russian state’s increasing control over women’s bodies all form part of Russian women’s difficult struggle for freedom. |
