Watch author Soraya Chemaly's book talk and reading at Politics and Prose bookstore in Washington, D.C.

With the 2024 reelection of Donald Trump, it has become impossible to deny that male supremacy is America's chief value system. To deny this is to ignore the root cause of democratic crises here and all over the Western world. And denial undermines our ability to resist and overcome.

With her trademark "skill, wit, and sharp insight" (Laura Bates, author of Girl Up), Soraya Chemaly walks us through how we got to this moment of terrible backlash while also offering hope to a better, more equitable future for men and women. All We Want Is Everything is a fresh and inspiring feminist manifesto that is crucial reading for our times.

Soraya Chemaly is an award-winning writer and activist whose work focuses on the role of gender in culture, politics, religion, and media. She is the director of the Women's Media Center Speech Project and an advocate for women's freedom of expression and expanded civic and political engagement. A prolific writer and speaker, her articles appear in Time, The Verge, The Guardian, The Nation, HuffPost, and The Atlantic. Follow her on X at @SChemaly and learn more at SorayaChemaly.com.
