‘Impressive’ - Bernardine Evaristo
'Read this and learn – this is what a force for good looks like' - Jess Phillips MP
'One of the best books I read this year [...] It’s truly essential reading for those who want to push forward for a more equal world' - Stylist
‘The next generation is in safe hands with women like Sara coming to the fore’ - Sunday Times
‘Soma’s efforts feel more pressing than ever’ - Vogue
'Her work has directly contributed to a groundswell of pent-up frustration and exhaustion from women and girls who have simply had enough. And people are listening’ - Independent
-------------------------
We are all a part of a culture that is broken – and nobody benefits from it. It’s in the news we read, the films we watch, the music we listen to, the people we surround ourselves with, the institutions we navigate, the laws we follow, and the streets we walk.
We are part of a system that was founded on inequality and drastic power imbalance. Of course, many things are better than they were. But the age of social media has dramatically exposed truths previously hidden. In this collection of essays, covering subjects from porn to the patriarchy, Soma Sara draws a line between the different facets of our society that enable inequality to flourish. The scale of the problem is vast, and deeply entrenched in all of us.
Here, Soma Sara argues that we can flip the script and start solving the problem – and create a better society for everyone.
Everyone’s Invited is an essential and enlightening force to push us forward to a more equal world.
