Uprising: A New Age Is Dawning for Every Mother's Daughter Hardcover – March 4, 2014

An amazing read, but not for the faint of heart. Be prepared to hear about some unspeakable acts against women, but also to hear about their resilience and amazing strength to fight for a better future for their daughters. You will be inspired, shed a few tears, and then finally be proud to hear about what so many women around the world are doing to make a change. Also be prepared to feel moved to lend your own efforts to the cause. Luckily, Ms. Armstrong provides a complete reference section to help you connect with any group that you feel inspired to reach out to. This is a must read for any woman who feels connected to our sisters across the sea and is willing to no longer just read the news reports, but start to make a difference.

Hope for human rights and equality starts with women -- we're the majority on the planet, after all! Armstrong's book provides lenses through which to view the feminisms that span the globe, set on nothing less than true equality. Although written before the backlash against women's involvement in the Arab Spring and subsequent strengthening of Muslim fundamentalism, "Uprising" is a powerful rallying cry for how and why this shift is in process -- and progress -- right now. A great read and a primer on work being done by women's rights activists all over the world, this is a must-read for those of us united in our quest of a world of equal rights for all.

Sally's painstaking reporting has given a voice to invisible women and their issues in many cultures. Bravo

A wonderful book to share with daughters and grandmothers. great job, Sally.

A fantastic book for a college education background, not an easy read for a novice or the "squeamish" who might be shocked by the forth right "tell it like it is".

Powerful book on abuse and prejudice toward women. Examples from all over the world. Some pretty graphic passages. Makes you think.

This is essential reading all young women as well as young men. We must be aware that gender equality will change this world for the better.

Great information that all of us should know!

Worth reading!!!

Book that everyone should read
