Whatever Works: Feminists of Faith Speak - a new Girl God Anthology.



Whatever Works is a unique collection of writing by feminists of diverse faiths from around the world. This anthology combines personal essays, poems and academic musings with the goal of sparking conversations among women of all faith backgrounds. Religion plays a key role in defining and maintaining value systems, and yet it is often disregarded within feminism itself.
This book shares the stories of highly diverse women with the hope that we can find collective solutions to the global problems that plague women and girls living under patriarchy.

Edited by Trista Hendren and Patricia Daly with Preface by Dr. Amina Wadud
