Title: (Un)kind Author: Victoria Smith Narrator: Victoria Smith Format: mp3 Length: 9 hrs and 2 mins Release date: 02-06-25 Ratings: 5 out of 5 stars, 4 ratings Genres: Social Sciences Publisher's Summary: Using the #JustBeKind trend of the 2020s as a starting point, (Un)kind explores how traditional beliefs about women's 'kind' nature have been repackaged for an age that remains dependent - socially, politically, economically - on female self-sacrifice while finding the concept outdated and essentialist. Looking at the various guises under which kindness culture is sold to women and girls - from play to self-help, social justice activism to empowerment - Victoria Smith argues that the pressure on women and girls has not decreased, but instead been incorporated into the 'work' of feminism.
