Feminism is the most successful social movement in history. This book looks at its diverse past, present and future and sets an important, necessary marker for all those who dedicate themselves to the struggle for freedom, equality and justice, for all those who ask: where does feminism come from and where is it going? What has been accomplished and what still needs to be fought for?

Measured by her own experiences, derived from profound knowledge, driven by conviction – Missy Magazine founder Stefanie Lohaus cleverly and impressively describes five decades of this world-changing effort. Stronger than Anger bears witness to the power and powerlessness of change, is a comprehensive intergenerational portrait and an instructive appeal.
