"title": "How Do You Raise A Feminist Daughter? Chimamanda Adichie Has 15 Suggestions",
"headTitle": "KQED Pop | KQED Arts",
"content": "\u003cp>A few years ago, Chimamanda Adichie received a message from a childhood friend asking for advice: She wanted to know how to raise her newborn daughter to be a feminist.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For Adichie — a best-selling author who has also made a name for herself as a leading feminist voice — the question was a bit daunting, but she wrote a long letter back to her friend. Now, that letter has been published as a book. It's called \u003cem>Dear Ijeawele, or A Feminist Manifesto in Fifteen Suggestions\u003c/em>, and it talks about everything from how to choose toys to teaching self-reliance to challenging traditional gender roles.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Adichie says writing the letter was useful for her, too. \"Yes, I wrote it for my friend, but I think to a large extent it was also my way of mapping out my own thinking. Because I have talked a lot about these things and I care very much about them and I get very passionate ... but I realized I didn't actually have a concrete map of the particular, specific things that I think will help if we do them differently.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003chr>\n\u003ch3>\u003cstrong>Interview Highlights\u003c/strong>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On \"feminism-lite\" and why it's harmful\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It means raising a girl to believe that she is inferior to a man, but that the man is expected to be good to her; that women are somehow naturally subordinate to men, but men have to treat women well. And I find it dehumanizing to women because I think that surely we have to have something more than male benevolence as the basis for a woman's wellbeing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I also think that that kind of feminism-lite, you know, often uses the language of power. And an example from the book is a British newspaper writing about the British prime minister and saying that her husband had \u003ca href=\"https://www.theguardian.com/business/2016/jul/12/philip-may-theresa-may-quiet-husband-city-experience\">\"allowed\" her to shine\u003c/a>. And I think it's the kind of language that's used so often that we just think it's normal, but it's so problematic. ... The premise, of course, is it's kind of like the headmaster has allowed the little girl to ascend.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And I just think it's important, very early on, to let children be aware of this. Right, so if a child — and when she's 3, of course, she's not going to be reading the newspapers, but when she's a bit older — to say to her, \"Do you see? This is not OK and here's why: 'Allow' is the language of power, and you can't use that when you're talking about two people who are equal.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On the importance of teaching girls to reject likability\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I think the way that a lot of girls are raised in so many parts of the world is that idea that you have to be likeable. And likeable means you have to kind of mold and shape what you do and say based on what you imagine the other person wants to hear. ...\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Actually, I was just thinking about a friend of mine who lives and works in Lagos, [Nigeria]. And she's talking about her superior at work, who she said was making her very uncomfortable because he made very demeaning remarks about her appearance, about her breasts, that kind of thing. And she said, you know, \"I just can't take it anymore.

"content": "\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003cp>A few years ago, Chimamanda Adichie received a message from a childhood friend asking for advice: She wanted to know how to raise her newborn daughter to be a feminist.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For Adichie — a best-selling author who has also made a name for herself as a leading feminist voice — the question was a bit daunting, but she wrote a long letter back to her friend. Now, that letter has been published as a book. It's called \u003cem>Dear Ijeawele, or A Feminist Manifesto in Fifteen Suggestions\u003c/em>, and it talks about everything from how to choose toys to teaching self-reliance to challenging traditional gender roles.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Adichie says writing the letter was useful for her, too. \"Yes, I wrote it for my friend, but I think to a large extent it was also my way of mapping out my own thinking. Because I have talked a lot about these things and I care very much about them and I get very passionate ... but I realized I didn't actually have a concrete map of the particular, specific things that I think will help if we do them differently.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003chr>\n\u003ch3>\u003cstrong>Interview Highlights\u003c/strong>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On \"feminism-lite\" and why it's harmful\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It means raising a girl to believe that she is inferior to a man, but that the man is expected to be good to her; that women are somehow naturally subordinate to men, but men have to treat women well. And I find it dehumanizing to women because I think that surely we have to have something more than male benevolence as the basis for a woman's wellbeing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

And an example from the book is a British newspaper writing about the British prime minister and saying that her husband had \u003ca href=\"https://www.theguardian.com/business/2016/jul/12/philip-may-theresa-may-quiet-husband-city-experience\">\"allowed\" her to shine\u003c/a>. And I think it's the kind of language that's used so often that we just think it's normal, but it's so problematic. ... The premise, of course, is it's kind of like the headmaster has allowed the little girl to ascend.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And I just think it's important, very early on, to let children be aware of this. Right, so if a child — and when she's 3, of course, she's not going to be reading the newspapers, but when she's a bit older — to say to her, \"Do you see? This is not OK and here's why: 'Allow' is the language of power, and you can't use that when you're talking about two people who are equal.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On the importance of teaching girls to reject likability\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I think the way that a lot of girls are raised in so many parts of the world is that idea that you have to be likeable. And likeable means you have to kind of mold and shape what you do and say based on what you imagine the other person wants to hear. ...\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Actually, I was just thinking about a friend of mine who lives and works in Lagos, [Nigeria]. And she's talking about her superior at work, who she said was making her very uncomfortable because he made very demeaning remarks about her appearance, about her breasts, that kind of thing. And she said, you know, \"I just can't take it anymore. I need to tell him to stop.\" And one of the men, a friend of ours who was there, said to her, \"Well yes, you should, but make sure you're not rude about it.\" And my friend said, \"Of course I won't be rude.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And I remember being struck by that because I thought, \u003cem>He's demeaning you, this person.

Ever since the 26-year-old actress \"came out\" as a feminist, she's been picked apart in every facet of her life as critics and feminist allies alike search of any traces of hypocrisy. For Watson, it's an impossible position -- on one side, she faces accusations of being an uptight, know-it-all feminist preacher; on the other, she's seen as too privileged and not feminist enough by fervently intersectional millennials.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The most recent turn in a seemingly endless discussion about Watson's fitness as a feminist stemmed from a rather stunning \u003ca href=\"https://www.timwalkerphotography.com/\">Tim Walker\u003c/a> photo shoot in this month's \u003cem>\u003ca href=\"http://www.vanityfair.com/hollywood/2017/02/emma-watson-cover-story\">Vanity Fair\u003c/a>\u003c/em>. The problem started when a British columnist and radio presenter named \u003ca href=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Julia_Hartley-Brewer\">Julia Hartley-Brewer\u003c/a> found a photo of Watson displaying some tasteful underboob from the shoot, and tweeted the following:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/JuliaHB1/status/836873834414366720\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Respected British newspaper \u003ca href=\"http://www.independent.co.uk/author/biba-kang\">\u003cem>The Independent\u003c/em>\u003c/a> followed up by questioning Watson’s choices and agency: “One of the rubbish side effects of being a woman is that it’s often very hard to distinguish what you want with what you have been told to want… The only thing ‘having its cake and eating it too’ here is the patriarchy.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The backlash continued. \u003ca href=\"http://www.cnn.com/2017/03/05/entertainment/emma-watson-vanity-fair-photo-controversy/\">CNN asked\u003c/a> with a straight face: “Can you be a feminist and pose in a nearly see-through top for Vanity Fair?\" And\u003cem> \u003ca href=\"http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/is-actress-feminist-emma-watson-a-hypocrite-going-topless-vanity-fair-982585\">The Hollywood Reporter\u003c/a>\u003c/em>, failing to understand that practicing feminists are not required nor expected to sign no-nudity clauses, asked, “Should stars worry more about their images in editorial photo spreads, especially when those images could run counter to their personal brand messaging?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some outlets fought for Watson. \u003cem>Jezebel\u003c/em>’s Rachel Verona Cote called Hartley-Brewer’s Tweet an “\u003ca href=\"http://jezebel.com/emma-watsons-feminist-card-is-now-invalid-because-she-p-1792995010\">absurd remark\u003c/a>;” \u003ca href=\"http://www.vulture.com/2017/03/emma-watson-gets-criticized-for-semi-nudity-in-vanity-fair.html\">\u003cem>Vulture\u003c/em> noted\u003c/a> that “According to some critics, feminism and nudity are mutually exclusive... That’s backwards.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Watson herself \u003ca href=\"https://www.buzzfeed.com/ikrd/emma-watson-is-very-confused-about-the-backlash-to-her-vanit?utm_term=.ci5v1WVoA#.diadw4lxE\">weighed in\u003c/a> with sense and humor: “Feminism is about giving women choice, feminism is not a stick with which to beat other women with. It’s about freedom, it’s about liberation, it’s about equality,” she said. “I really don’t know what my tits have to do with it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even after that, Watson was attacked on Twitter by Beyoncé fans, who revived \u003ca href=\"http://www.billboard.com/articles/news/7717149/emma-watson-beyonce-fans-called-hypocrite\">a three-year-old interview\u003c/a> in which Watson discussed Queen Bey's music videos.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/MJStarLover/status/838459099566247937\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In response, Watson dug up the interview, highlighted the sections in which she talked about Beyoncé, and allowed the text to speak for itself.

Now pianist Billy Childs has recorded a celebration of Nyro’s music with an all-star band (Shawn Colvin, Rickie Lee Jones, Becca Stevens, Renée Fleming, Yo-Yo Ma, Lisa Fischer, Alison Krauss, Susan Tedeschi, Wayne Shorter, Esperanza Spalding, and Dianne Reeves — wow), and he’s bringing the tribute show to San Francisco. Nyro, born Laura Nigro in the Bronx, combined gospel, pop, rock and jazz, with lyrics that were political, poetic, and sometimes whimsical. And for the local connection: her first major professional gig was at the age of 18 at San Francisco’s Hungry I coffeehouse.

Hunter quit music for years to work as a nurse, then came out of retirement at the age of 82 and became more popular than ever. Gomez wrote the play with actress Desiree Rogers in mind for the lead, who often works with the LGBT-focused \u003ca href=\"http://www.nctcsf.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">New Conservatory Theatre Center\u003c/a>.

Now pianist Billy Childs has recorded a celebration of Nyro’s music with an all-star band (Shawn Colvin, Rickie Lee Jones, Becca Stevens, Renée Fleming, Yo-Yo Ma, Lisa Fischer, Alison Krauss, Susan Tedeschi, Wayne Shorter, Esperanza Spalding, and Dianne Reeves — wow), and he’s bringing the tribute show to San Francisco. Nyro, born Laura Nigro in the Bronx, combined gospel, pop, rock and jazz, with lyrics that were political, poetic, and sometimes whimsical. And for the local connection: her first major professional gig was at the age of 18 at San Francisco’s Hungry I coffeehouse.

She was a poetry speaker substituted at the last minute. Once she started telling her stories of her travels in Ghana, the world, and her life, I was mesmerized, spellbound and inspired. Even though I majored in physiology and later became an optometrist, I took time to read all her books. She had such an integral influence on my life. A dozen years or so later I went to hear her speak at a poetry reading, and gave her a copy of a book of poetry I had written. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/arts/2017/01/20/maya-angelou-legacy-of-an-artist/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/02/Maya_300x300.jpg\" alt=\"Maya_300x300\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-12735398\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/02/Maya_300x300.jpg 300w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/02/Maya_300x300-160x160.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/02/Maya_300x300-240x240.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/02/Maya_300x300-32x32.jpg 32w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/02/Maya_300x300-50x50.jpg 50w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/02/Maya_300x300-64x64.jpg 64w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/02/Maya_300x300-96x96.jpg 96w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/02/Maya_300x300-128x128.jpg 128w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/02/Maya_300x300-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I saw her again at the Black Filmmakers’ Award show.

She was a poetry speaker substituted at the last minute. Once she started telling her stories of her travels in Ghana, the world, and her life, I was mesmerized, spellbound and inspired. Even though I majored in physiology and later became an optometrist, I took time to read all her books. She had such an integral influence on my life. A dozen years or so later I went to hear her speak at a poetry reading, and gave her a copy of a book of poetry I had written. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/arts/2017/01/20/maya-angelou-legacy-of-an-artist/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/02/Maya_300x300.jpg\" alt=\"Maya_300x300\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-12735398\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/02/Maya_300x300.jpg 300w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/02/Maya_300x300-160x160.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/02/Maya_300x300-240x240.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/02/Maya_300x300-32x32.jpg 32w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/02/Maya_300x300-50x50.jpg 50w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/02/Maya_300x300-64x64.jpg 64w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/02/Maya_300x300-96x96.jpg 96w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/02/Maya_300x300-128x128.jpg 128w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/02/Maya_300x300-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I saw her again at the Black Filmmakers’ Award show. She complimented me on some earrings I had made and said she liked my poetry. I mentioned to her that a friend of hers was my first cousin. She said, “Yes, Don Martin. We’ve been friends for over 50 years!” He’s one of the featured speakers in the documentary about Angelou, called \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/arts/2017/01/20/maya-angelou-legacy-of-an-artist/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003ci>Maya Angelou: And Still I Rise\u003c/i>\u003c/a>. They met when he was in the first troupe of the Alvin Ailey dancers and she was a calypso performer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A few years after that meeting, Stephanie, one of my best friends, mentioned a possible date with a young man she had met at work. I encouraged her to go out with him, as she wasn’t doing anything but cleaning her house. Later she did go out with him and said she had a nice time and that his mother was someone named Maya Angelou. I said, “Maya Angelou? You better keep going out with him so you can meet his mother! She’s amazing!” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They dated and eventually married. They have been together for over twenty years now. \u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_12837259\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/03/Vicki-and-Maya-800x561.jpg\" alt=\"Dr. Vicki Hughes and Maya Angelou\" width=\"800\" height=\"561\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-12837259\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/03/Vicki-and-Maya-800x561.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/03/Vicki-and-Maya-160x112.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/03/Vicki-and-Maya-768x539.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/03/Vicki-and-Maya-1020x716.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/03/Vicki-and-Maya-1180x828.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/03/Vicki-and-Maya-960x674.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/03/Vicki-and-Maya-240x168.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/03/Vicki-and-Maya-375x263.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/03/Vicki-and-Maya-520x365.jpg 520w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/03/Vicki-and-Maya.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Dr. Vicki Hughes and Maya Angelou. \u003ccite>(courtesy of Vicki Hughes)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>During this time Oprah Winfrey wanted to honor Maya by giving her birthday parties.

Adam Levine, who has forged a career out of peddling aggressively corporate mall slop that manages to masquerade as something edgy thanks to — I don’t even know what, tattoos? — is not just the rock star analog to Travis Kalanick. He’s the only rock star that probably even makes \u003cem>sense\u003c/em> in the universe of people like Travis Kalanick.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lest you forget, this is not the universe in which you and I live. It’s a world where you can buy positive reinforcement from those around you, which in turn means that there’s never a good reason to stop being \u003ca href=\"http://observer.com/2014/06/convincing-adam-levine-that-he-is-in-fact-a-douchebag/\">a giant chode\u003c/a>. If you are Adam Levine, this means talking about how much you like \u003ca href=\"http://www.usmagazine.com/celebrity-news/news/adam-levine-talks-douchebag-reputation-why-he-dates-models-2014256\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">having sex with models\u003c/a> while giving advice like “\u003ca href=\"http://www.usatoday.com/story/life/people/2014/06/28/adam-levine-maroon-5-begin-again-having-it-all/11471939/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">do things for love, not money\u003c/a>” and also selling a fragrance and a clothing line and doing acne cream commercials and bragging about how you don’t do your own laundry or clean your own house. If you are Travis Kalanick, you are eternally self-satisfied, shimmying in the backseat of a luxury car that’s on contract with a company you own, driven by an employee you’ve met but don’t remember — and one who is, by the way, \u003ca href=\"http://fortune.com/2017/02/02/uber-california-lawsuit-settlement/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">definitely paying out of pocket for his healthcare\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qpgTC9MDx1o\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Anyway, I digress: we’re talking here about what it means to love Maroon 5. What’s at stake is not casual enjoyment of this band’s music. Being lightly energized by a Maroon 5 ditty when it comes over the P.A. while you’re picking up socks and dog food at Target? Fine.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But \u003cem>loving\u003c/em> Maroon 5, as Kalanick apparently does? Crowning them your \u003cem>favorite\u003c/em>? Grander-scale implications aside, I genuinely want to know what that feels like. What other tastes correlate with this passion? Does Jay Leno seem like the wittiest man in America? Is off-brand caffeine-free diet cola the most delicious beverage you can think of?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Before the accusations of snobbery pour in, let the record show that I got distracted halfway through writing this post because due to my YouTube viewing habits the internet decided to remind me that S Club 7 was a thing, and then I had to watch \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tnow8LJCVPM\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">their music videos\u003c/a> for like 15 minutes. On a \u003cem>plane\u003c/em>. I have zero shame.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I also, to my knowledge, have zero things in common with Uber CEO Travis Kalanick. Should I choose to shimmy awkwardly in the backseat of a car en route to a party anytime soon, it won’t be to Maroon 5. And more importantly, it \u003cem>certainly\u003c/em> won’t be in an Uber. At the moment, that’s all the stock I really need.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-12127869\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_.jpg\" alt=\"Q.Logo.Break\" width=\"800\" height=\"78\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_-400x39.jpg 400w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_-768x75.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003c/p>\n\n",

If you are Travis Kalanick, you are eternally self-satisfied, shimmying in the backseat of a luxury car that’s on contract with a company you own, driven by an employee you’ve met but don’t remember — and one who is, by the way, \u003ca href=\"http://fortune.com/2017/02/02/uber-california-lawsuit-settlement/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">definitely paying out of pocket for his healthcare\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/qpgTC9MDx1o'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/qpgTC9MDx1o'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>Anyway, I digress: we’re talking here about what it means to love Maroon 5.
