This Shit Just Makes Me Tired

How can a new imprint call itself Every Woman's Voice and open with a stable of authors that looks like this?

(No need to answer the question: obviously any imprint that would call itself Every Woman's Voice in this day and age would have a stable of authors that looked like that...)

(Can I tell you how hard it is, sometimes, to defend feminism and all that it has come to stand for?!) (By which really I mean Feminism, the capital letter signalling mainstream middle-class white feminism, i.e. when Robin Morgan and Gloria Steinem go nuts on women who don't support Hillary, etc. I still insist that feminism is more capacious than the media and some of its progenitrixes would have it, but, like I said, sometimes it's hard to make the case.)

That'd be funny if it weren't so annoying.
