"This book opens discussion related to the female gender role and the socialization of girls in many different, thought provoking ways, and serves as a timely critique of the current societal messages directed toward girls." - Analyses of Social Issues and Public Policy, "While schools and parents scramble to once again 'fix girls' via meanness prevention programs, Lyn Brown gives us a wider, different, and eye-opening view of the problem. . . . This is the smartest book on mean girls around." - Sharon Lamb, author ofThe Secret Lives of Girls, This book opens discussion related to the female gender role and the socialization of girls in many different, thought provoking ways, and serves as a timely critique of the current societal messages directed toward girls., "This book opens discussion related to the female gender role and the socialization of girls in many different, thought provoking ways, and serves as a timely critique of the current societal messages directed toward girls." - Analyses of Social Issues and Public Policy ,, "Brown's book, however, is a clear departure from the film [Mean Girls] stereotypes about dumb, mean, backstabbing girls." -Waterville, Sunday Morning Sentinel, Brown's book, however, is a clear departure from the film [Mean Girls] stereotypes about dumb, mean, backstabbing girls., " Girlfighting is a serious and intelligent analysis of the cruelty and meanness involved in girls' relationships at each stage of development." - Pyschiatric Services ,, Browns book, however, is a clear departure from the film [Mean Girls] stereotypes about dumb, mean, backstabbing girls., "Girlfightingis a serious and intelligent analysis of the cruelty and meanness involved in girls' relationships at each stage of development." -Pyschiatric Services, "As American are becoming increasingly sensitized to ingrained racial pathologies, Katheryn Russell's book, particularly her highly original chapter on racial hoaxes, is a crucial addition to the national discussion on race." - Jody Armour, author of Negrophobia and Reasonable Racism, Brown declares that to change the patterns of female animosity we must address the social environment as well as the individual., While schools and parents scramble to once again 'fix girls' via meanness prevention programs, Lyn Brown gives us a wider, different, and eye-opening view of the problem. . . . This is the smartest book on mean girls around., "Russell brilliantly scrutinizes the demonization of black men in the mass media and criminal justice system. Since slavery whites have fabricated fictions of dangerous black men and a distinctive 'black crime,' while playing down the real dominance of (unnamed) 'white crime.' Russell demonstrates that media distortions and racial hoaxes grow from and feed black demonization. Reviewing the failure of reforms to create a fair criminal justice system, and society, she offers imaginative, workable solutions." - Joe R. Feagin, coauthor of White Racism, "While schools and parents scramble to once again 'fix girls' via meanness prevention programs, Lyn Brown gives us a wider, different, and eye-opening view of the problem. . . .
