Is Feminism dead? Definitely not! Do young women (and men) identify as feminist and engage in feminist organisations and mobilization? Most certainly! Alison Dahl Crossley presents us with a rich empirical study of millennial activists at three US universities representing different environments for feminist activisms. Based on participant observation, survey data and seventy-five in-depth interviews, Crossley disentangles the attitudes of young women and men towards feminism and their involvement in online and offline activism. Crossley thus provides a welcome and much needed empirically grounded assessment of young people’s attitudes towards feminism – or rather: feminisms.

Abstract

Is Feminism dead? Definitely not! Do young women (and men) identify as feminist and engage in feminist organisations and mobilization? Most certainly! Alison Dahl Crossley presents us with a rich empirical study of millennial activists at three US universities representing different environments for feminist activisms. Based on participant observation, survey data and seventy-five in-depth interviews, Crossley disentangles the attitudes of young women and men towards feminism and their involvement in online and offline activism. Crossley thus provides a welcome and much needed empirically grounded assessment of young people’s attitudes towards feminism – or rather: feminisms.
