Description
"Elizabeth Flock examines how three real-life women have used violence to fight back, and how views of women who defend their lives are often distorted by their depictions in media and pop culture. These three immersive narratives follow Brittany Smith, a young woman from Stevenson, Alabama, who killed a man she said raped her but was denied the protection of the Stand-Your-Ground law; Angoori Dahariya, leader of a gang in Uttar Pradesh, India, dedicated to avenging victims of domestic abuse; and Cicek Mustafa Zibo, a fighter in a thousands-strong all-female militia that battled ISIS in Syria oman chose to use lethal force to gain power, safety, and freedom when the institutions meant to protect them, government, police, courts, utterly failed to do so. Each woman has been criticized for their actions by those who believe that violence is never the answer. The novelistic accounts of these three women provoke questions about how to achieve true gender equality, and offer profound insights in the quest for answers"--,Provided by publisher.
