Righteous Rage

""In Righteous Rage, Susan Foster does more than chronicle the trajectory of American feminism-she revitalizes its essence with intellectual depth, lived experience, and a spiritually grounded Jungian perspective. Drawing upon her personal evolution and the enduring archetypes of the fierce goddess, Foster follows in the lineage of thinkers like Esther Harding and Soraya Chemaly to assert a crucial truth: female rage is not dangerous-it is sacred, transformational, and urgently needed."" --Danica Anderson, author of South Slavic Women's Transgenerational Trauma Healing Through Oral Memory Practices ""Susan Foster has written a book for all American women, a vivid mosaic intertwining vignettes of the fierce divine female through time and space with the need for a new feminist rage against patriarchal demonization of the female in our world today."" --Lora Holland, Professor Emerita of UNC Asheville, author of ""Cervidology and the Antlered Deer of Artemis: Representation Between Myth and Reality,"" Memoirs of the American Academy in Rome 68 (2023), JSTOR. ""Righteous Rage is a juicy book for our times, when women's frustration, anger, and rage at the patriarchal powers that be have reached yet another boiling point. Susan Foster nimbly combines feminist history with stories of the dark or fierce goddesses of various cultures to help us understand where our rage originates and why it matters today. These fierce goddesses are with us showing us how to claim our power in the name of love."" --Stephanie Anderson Ladd, author of Goddesses of Self-Care: 30 Divine Feminine Archetypes To Guide Us ""Righteous rage, ancient and modern, a stay against cruelty and violation, a force to be reckoned with."" - -Patricia Reis, author of Through the Goddess: A Woman's Way of Healing and Daughters of Saturn: From Father's Daughter to Creative Woman
