Nasty Women Project Book

[edit]

The Nasty Women Project: Voices from the resistance is a book published with the intention of sharing the stories of American women that were effected emotionally or in other ways by the 2016 election that resulted in Donald Trump getting the nomination.[1] The book is a collection of works written by various American women that identify as "nasty women"[1].

T-Shirts and Apparel

[edit]

The concept of Nasty Women was almost instantly materialized and put onto apparel to be sold, the money used to fund Planned Parenthood[2]. As of December 2016, the t-shirts had already raised upwards of $100,000 for Planned Parenthood.[2] The t-shirts gained a lot of popularity seemingly overnight, with celebrities such as Will Ferrell, Katy Perry, and Julia Louis-Dreyfus all wearing them publicly and posting their support on social media outlets.[3]

Media Support

[edit]

The media has supplied support to the nasty women project with the types of articles written about the subject. Buzzfeed has written several articles about the Nasty Women Project, giving the topic more air in the social media sense.[4] Various media outlets such as NPR, Huffington Post, The Guardian, and many more, all covered aspects of Nasty Women.[5] Saturday Night Live also preformed a skit featuring Nasty Woman and Bad Hombres.[6]

Nasty Woman Hashtag

[edit]

The Nasty Woman hashtag became popular on social media outlets almost immediately after Donald Trump made the offhanded comment of Hilary Clinton being "such a nasty woman".[7] The hashtag is largely responsible for the immense amount of support and coverage that the movement has gotten.
