With the backlash against feminism and reproductive rights since Roe v. Wade was overturned, many people are asking whether feminism is lost, if not dead. With so many rights on the chopping block, including rights to contraception and IVF, Righteous Rage helps inspire women (and their male allies) for the fight ahead. It draws on the fierce energy of the dark, or fierce, goddesses of ancient times, who represent an archetype of female rage against injustice. They carry a primordial energy of destruction of systems and paradigms that no longer serve us, such as patriarchy, but also have the power to create new non-patriarchal structures that promote wellbeing and align with justice. The dark goddesses have been submerged in our psyches, residing in what Carl Jung called the collective unconscious, but they serve as a repository of fierce energy which, if tapped into, can rejuvenate the flagging women's movement.
