Media Reviews
"Direct, accessible, engaging, powerful, and evidence-based. This treasure trove of feminist manifestos-on extraordinarily important issues-is a welcome gift to instructors of media and communication studies seeking to provoke students' attention and their activism as media consumers and future professionals." - H. Leslie Steeves (coauthor of Communication for Development: Theory and Practice for Empowerment and Social Justice) “In We Can Do Better, two outstanding scholars bring together virtually every major feminist researcher across a broad swath of communication. These essays provide actionable solutions for fair and equitable media practices for women. I can't wait to share this book with both my undergrad and graduate students, not to mention every woman I know in communication. Let's all buy this book and get going." - Esther Thorson (coeditor of Digital Advertising: Theory and Research)
