For over forty years, Valerie Solanas' biting polemic has delighted and terrified readers. SCUM is an indictment of patriarchal culture, a call to action, a radical feminist vision for a different world. Alternating between satire and seriousness, SCUM remains as a relevant today as when it was first written. Popular and divisive from its first publication, the SCUM Manifesto has proved an enduring classic and has been translated into over a dozen languages. This edition is an update of a best-selling AK Press backlist title, with a new introduction by American poet Michelle Tea.
