We have to keep saying it because they keep doing it.
Do colleagues roll their eyes in a meeting when you use words like sexism or racism? Do you refuse to laugh at jokes that aren´t funny? Have you been called divisive for pointing out a division? Then you are a feminist killjoy, and this handbook is for you.
The term killjoy has been used to dismiss feminism by claiming that it causes misery. But by naming ourselves feminist killjoys, we recover a feminist history, turning it into a source of strength as well as an inspiration.
Drawing on her own stories and those of others, especially Black and brown feminists and queer thinkers, Sara Ahmed combines depth of thought with honesty and intimacy. The Feminist Killjoy Handbook unpicks the lies our culture tells us and provides a form of solidarity and companionship that can be returned to over a lifetime.

Sara Ahmed
Manual feminista para aguafiestas
Per Cèlia Esteva
La primera vez que Sara Ahmed presentó a la feminista aguafiestas fue a raíz de un cuento de los hermanos Grimm en el que una niña testaruda, al no hacer caso a su madre, cae enferma y muere. Sin embargo, una vez enterrada, sigue levantando el brazo por encima de la tierra que la cubre hasta que, tras pegarla con una vara, consiguen que reste quieta y al fin descanse.
