Description
Burn It Down! is a testament to what is possible when women are driven to the edge. Collecting over seventy-five manifestos from around the world, Burn It Down! is a rallying cry and a call to action. Among this quarrel- some sisterhood, you'll find ACT UP's Queer Nation Manifesto, Emma Goldman's 1896 Anarchy and the Sex Question, Valerie Solanas's SCUM Manifesto and The Combahee River Collective Statement
