Invisible Women: Has Anyone Informed Jordan Peterson?
newsletter.carolinecriadoperez.com
Well HELLO THERE, my dear GFPs! Happy almost International Women's Day! Happy International Women's MONTH! (ikr can you believe we get a whole MONTH now, does Jordan Peterson know??)The theme for this year’s IWD is, I am reliably informed, #BreaktheBias, and this is, in my humble opinion, preferable to last year's #ChoosetoChallenge which tbqh made me die a bit inside -- honestly who comes up with these? Is there a committee? Why are we not on it?? I demand a GFP representative!Anyway, I guess we're ok with Break the Bias as a theme because what, if not breaking the bias, is a GFP even FOR, although I'm not sure about how much impact crossing arms into an X (the recommended accompanying action) in an instagram post will have on the state of the data gap.Do I sound jaded? I suppose I am a bit. After a decade of seeing hashtag activism achieve little more than moral licensing I am all out of patience for words and poses that cost nothing and deliver as little. As Mariah Carey sang in an alternate universe, "All I Want For IWD Are Some Tangible Goals And The Detailed, Evidence-Based, And, Crucially, Well-Funded Plans To Realise Them" 🎶Instant number one right there -- someone get Mariah's agent on the phone 🥸Anyway, thankfully there ARE some women doing just that -- the lovely A[merican]B[eefcake] sent me this article the other day of TIME Magazine's 12 women of the year -- GFPs may recognise a certain Tracy Chou, not only from Invisible Women The Book p.110, but also from Invisible Women The Newsletter and Invisible Women The YouTube Channel, phew!In other #IWD-related news, my UK publisher has just got in touch to inform me that Invisible Women is on Kindle Deal throughout March at the OUTRAGEOUSLY low price of £1.99 AND that members of Audible UK can get the audiobook of Invisible Women (read by me!) for the ALSO OUTRAGEOUSLY low price of £1.99 ONLY ON International Women’s Day itself, ie TOMORROW, Tuesday 8th March. So if there's anyone left in your life who hasn't yet read it (and the tangible, evidence-based goals therein 😎) now is a pretty good time for them to invest in a copy 🙌
