Gender researcher Crossley shares research conducted at three different U.S. institutions of higher learning—Smith College, the University of Minnesota, and the University of California at Santa Barbara—to establish that young feminists are quite different from the way they’re often pictured. They are indeed aware of persistent inequalities but mobilize in different ways from their foremothers; they are savvy about online activism, their feminism is an everyday practice rather than a special event, and their cause intersects with larger goals of social justice, gender equality, and human rights. The voices of her interview subjects add much lively description about life as a young feminist at these schools, but the book spends more time theorizing for academic posterity than assembling a series of practical tools and strategies that can be adapted to other campuses. Crossley’s findings about campus feminism may seem self-evident to those working in this population, and the academic language, research, and theory are unlikely to engage those outside of the scholarly community.
