Preceded by | Sisterhood Is Global: The International Women's Movement Anthology (1984) |
Sisterhood Is Forever: The Women's Anthology for a New Millennium is a 2003 anthology of feminist writings edited by Robin Morgan. It has more than fifty women contributing sixty original essays written specifically for it. [1] [2] It is the follow-up anthology to Sisterhood Is Global: The International Women's Movement Anthology (1984), which itself is the follow-up to Sisterhood Is Powerful: An Anthology of Writings from the Women's Liberation Movement (1970). [3]
Sisterhood Is Forever shows the reader feminism's emphases and accomplishments as of 2003. [4] Essays range in tone from scholarly to narrative and provide both conservative and liberal view points. [5] The focus is on feminism in the United States. [6] The book addresses why feminism is still needed in the 21st century, providing "alarming" statistics about the status of women in the United States in Morgan's introduction. [7]
Sisterhood Is Forever was considered "multifaceted and compelling" by Publishers Weekly. [5] According to reviewer Kathy Davis, Robin Morgan's touch can be seen throughout the book, showing a clear sense of vision through her choices of essays and her footnotes. [6] While some critics felt that focusing on the U.S. was "problematic," [6] others felt that it made sense, especially in the wake of 9/11. [7] [8]
In a 2019 Paris Fashion Week show, Christian Dior's creative director Maria Grazia Chiuri debuted a collection of T-shirts that read Sisterhood Is Powerful, Sisterhood Is Global, and Sisterhood Is Forever, respectively. [9] [10]
