We Should All Be Feminists

We Should All Be Feminists is a short essay by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, published in 2014. Based on a TED talk recorded at Princeton University in 2012, it explores the concepts of feminism in the contemporary world.

Adichie offers an accessible and universal definition of feminism: it is not about hating men, but wanting women to be treated equally with men in all areas of life. The text achieved exceptional global reach, being adopted by Beyoncé in the song Flawless from the album Lemonade (2016).

This essay, both personal and political, fits into a broader tradition of embodied feminist advocacy.
