Patriarchy means "the rule of the father" and describes a system where men are in control. Since at least the time of Aristotle, if not long before, loud-mouthed men have called women weak and inferior. In entertaining comic book form, Smash the Patriarchy shames the culprits and salutes more than 100 inspiring women-from Pharaoh Hatshepsut to Mary Wollstonecraft to Petra Herrera-who stood up to them. The book is not afraid to examine some of the worst crimes-public shaming, medical examinations, and the widespread murder and jailing of feminists around the world-as it calls on readers to finally smash the patriarchy forever.
