A long line of judges, politicians, and other influential voices have ignored womens struggles for equality or distorted them beyond recognition by wildly exaggerating American progress. Even as sexism continues to warp constitutional law, political decision making, and everyday life, prominent Americans have spent more than a century proclaiming that the United States has already left sex discrimination behind. Jill Elaine Hasdays <em>We the Men</em> is the first book to explore how forgetting womens struggles for equalityand forgetting the work America still has to doperpetuates injustice, promotes complacency, and denies how generations of women have had to come together to fight for reform and against regression. Hasday argues that remembering womens stories more often and more accurately can help the nation advance toward sex equality. These stories highlight the persistence of womens inequality and make clear that real progress has always required women to disrupt the status quo, demand change, and duel with determined opponents. America needs more conflict over womens status rather than less. Conflict has the power to generate forward momentum. Patiently awaiting mens spontaneous enlightenment does not. Transforming Americas dominant stories about itself can reorient our understanding of how womens progress takes place, focus our attention on the battles that are still unwon, and fortify our determination to push for a more equal future.</p>...6908198We the Men441464https://www.gandhi.com.mx/we-the-men-9780197800829/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/6818676/image.jpg?v=638738527429230000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20259780197800829_W3siaWQiOiI3N2QwMDM3NC1lZTRmLTQyMGYtYTMxZi04YzYwYzE4NWQxZGQiLCJsaXN0UHJpY2UiOjQ2NCwiZGlzY291bnQiOjIzLCJzZWxsaW5nUHJpY2UiOjQ0MSwiaW5jbHVkZXNUYXgiOnRydWUsInByaWNlVHlwZSI6Ildob2xlc2FsZSIsImN1cnJlbmN5IjoiTVhOIiwiZnJvbSI6IjIwMjUtMDctMDFUMDA6MDA6MDBaIiwicmVnaW9uIjoiTVgiLCJpc1ByZW9yZGVyIjpmYWxzZX1d9780197800829_<p>In a nation whose Constitution purports to speak for We the People, too many of the stories that powerful Americans tell about law and society include only "We the Men".
