Feminisms 2025

Welcome to the 11th edition of intersectional feminist media recommendations from the past year. It was a hard year – one of the hardest – all around the world, and especially for women, people of colour, queer folks, and basically everyone who is not a narcissist. Despite the slim pickings in media this year, there are a few gems worth mentioning:

Quotes by Katrina Sark  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“Berlinerinnen also continue to reinvent Berlin fashion. Women like Claudia Skoda, c.neeon (Clara Kraetsch and Doreen Schultz), Stadtkluft (Claudine Brignot of urbanspeed and Sandra Siewert of s.wert) and Natascha Loch carry on the tradition of Berliner Chic and carry its meanings into today's fashion. Berlinerinnen will always be ready to wear: the women who live in the city, are photographed in its streets, wear local brands and give Berlin fashion its reputation as exigeant and schraeg. Without all of these women, there would be no Berliner Chic, and so it is to them that this project is dedicated.”
Katrina Sark, Berliner Chic: A Locational History of Berlin Fashion

“Real liberation comes not from glossing over or repressing painful states of feeling, but only from experiencing them to the full.”
C.G. Jung, The Archetypes and the Collective Unconscious

“Outside of a dog, a book is man's best friend. Inside of a dog it's too dark to read.”
Groucho Marx, The Essential Groucho: Writings For By And About Groucho Marx

“I find television very educating. Every time somebody turns on the set, I go into the other room and read a book.”
Groucho Marx

“Women may be the one group that grows more radical with age.”
Gloria Steinem

“Writing is the only thing that when I do it, I don't feel I should be doing something else.”
Gloria Steinem
