Award-winning journalist Meaghan Beatley takes us to the frontlines to tell inspiring stories of resistance and political imagination that will be a vital roadmap in the years to come. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn Argentina, a national reckoning over abortion--sparked, in part, by an unholy alliance with a popular gossip show--ignited a nationwide movement that led to the legalization of abortion. Across the Andes, young feminists in Chile fueled a constitutional rewrite to confront deep structural inequality. In Spain, a high-profile sexual assault case cracked open a fierce public debate, redefining the meaning of consent. And in Mexico, balaclava-clad student protesters occupied a government building to force the epidemic of femicide into the national spotlight. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe product of a decade of immersive reporting, Beatley captures the urgency and creativity of these movements and the women who led a motley crew of former guerrilla fighters, student occupiers, and mothers standing down narco violence. At once intimate and politically electric, \u003ci\u003eSex and Dissent\u003c\/i\u003e reframes the global struggle for equality--and offers a model for building power, solidarity, and radical democratic change.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Meaghan Beatley\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0143138448\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780143138440\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Penguin Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/04\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 384\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.66lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.44h x 5.50w x 0.72d","brand":"Meaghan Beatley","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48154215710975,"sku":"9780143138440","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_df030d8f-6eb7-42a0-a786-b3ea5ad27da4.jpg?v=1770788675","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/sex-and-dissent-meaghan-beatley-9780143138440","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
