Inhaltsangabe:

The Everyday Sexism Project was founded by writer and activist Laura Bates in April 2012. It began life as a website where people could share their experiences of daily, normalized sexism, from street harassment to workplace discrimination to sexual assault and rape.

The Project became a viral sensation, attracting international press attention from The New York Times to French Glamour, Grazia South Africa, to the Times of India and support from celebrities such as Rose McGowan, Amanda Palmer, Mara Wilson, Ashley Judd, James Corden, Simon Pegg, and many others. The project has now collected over 100,000 testimonies from people around the world and launched new branches in 25 countries worldwide. The project has been credited with helping to spark a new wave of feminism.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor: LAURA BATES has become something of a spokeswoman for an increasingly hot phenomenon: the fourth wave of feminism. She writes regulary for many leading periodicals; has given TEDx talks; spoken to universities--including Harvard--and even to the House of Lords. Laura has received the 2015 British Empire Medal in the Queen's Birthday Honours; the WMC Digital Media Award from the Women's Media Center (founded by Jane Fonda, Robin Morgan, and Gloria Steinem), the Georgina Henry prize; has been named in the BBC Woman's Hour Power List 2014 Game Changers, and in 2013 she won Cosmopolitan's Ultimate Woman of the Year Award. She was also named CNN's 10 Visionary Women List. She is the founder of the Everday Sexism Project.
