In "Rage Becomes Her," Soraya Chemaly delivers a powerful and transformative message for women of the twenty-first century: embrace your anger. This isn't just any call to action; it's a meticulously argued case for why women's rage, long demonized and suppressed by societal norms, is actually an untapped force for creating significant personal and societal transformation. Chemaly dives deep into the myriad reasons women's anger has been belittled and turned against them, arguing persuasively that when women reframe their anger as a tool rather than a hindrance, they unlock potential for change that has historically been kept under lock and key. With precision and passion, Chemaly explores how the suppression of female anger has perpetuated inequality and outlines the ways in which anger, when understood and utilized effectively, can be an incredibly empowering and liberating force. "Rage Becomes Her" is a rallying cry for women to reject the harmful stereotypes that constrain their emotions and to see their anger not as something to be feared, but as a powerful instrument of change. This book is not just a manifesto but a revelation, offering women a new lens through which to see themselves and their place in the world, and inspiring a seismic shift in the way anger is perceived and harnessed in the quest for gender justice.

We are so busy teaching girls to be likeable that we often forget to teach them, as we do boys, that they should be respected.
