Does feminism still matter?

Here’s a link to book lists from people who think it does:

It’s called the Amelia Bloomer Project.  Here’s a quote from the website:

“This year’s list includes books challenging the young women of today to take a new look at what it means to be feminist, showcasing who fought for our rights. These books bring to light the stories of women who break boundaries, from civil war doctors and journalists covering WWII to graffiti artists and girls demanding to be accepted for who they are.  The 32 books on the 2008 Amelia Bloomer Project list encourage and inspire girls to be smart, brave, and proud.”
