Dead Feminists - Historic Heroines in Living Color
Tuesday, October 18 at 7 p.m.
Olympic Room, Main Branch
Intricate and beautiful broadside art takes center stage in this richly visual book that ties inspiring women and the challenges they faced to today's most important issues. The book revisits the original poster series—plus adds new art, archival photographs, and ephemera—to tell the stories of feminists such as Eleanor Roosevelt, Gwendolyn Brooks, Rachel Carson, and more. Dead Feminists takes feminist inspiration to a new level of artistry and shows how ordinary and extraordinary women have made a difference throughout history (and how you can too).
Books will be available for purchase and signing at the event.
