The debut book from a celebrated artist on the urgent topic of street harassment

Every day, all over the world, women are catcalled and denigrated simply for walking down the street. Boys will be boys, women have been told for generations, ignore it, shrug it off, take it as a compliment. But the harassment has real consequences for women: in the fear it instills and the shame they are made to feel.

In
Stop Telling Women to Smile, Tatyana Fazlalizadeh uses her arresting street art portraits to explore how women experience hostility in communities that are supposed to be homes. She addresses the pervasiveness of street harassment, its effects, and the kinds of activism that can serve to counter it. The result is a cathartic reckoning with the aggression women endure, and an examination of what equality truly entails.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"Tatyana's art does what all great art does: tells the truth about our times. Her portraits of women are not only beautiful, they give women a space to have their truths heard. She is formidable and strong in her art, and our society is better for it."―Spike Lee

"Tatyana Fazlalizadeh has done what so many artists wish to accomplish. She has combined her tremendous talent for producing beautiful images with a forthright critique of the world she inhabits.
Stop Telling Women to Smile is the most consequential street art campaign of the last decade, and we owe that to Tatyana's honesty, intelligence, hustle, and unmatched artistic talents. Her commitment to this project has challenged the way we discuss women and women's bodies in public space, and we are better for it."
Mychal Denzel Smith, New York Times bestselling author of Invisible Man: Got the Whole World Watching

"Tatyana Fazlalizadeh's work wrestles the knot between cultural codes and the bodies of women with spectacular artistry. Her intersectional feminism lights the fire we need to see a way forward. She is unflinching and glorious."
Lidia Yuknavitch, bestselling author of The Book of Joan

"Tatyana Fazlalizadeh's work makes me smile. Provocation brings joy and Fazlalizadeh's images startle and prod with their delicate ferocity, reminding us that women are human. She treats us to what is seldom seen: woman as subject, woman as agent, woman as free human being."―
Myriam Gurba, author of Mean

"Tatyana Fazlalizadeh is the political artist of our time. Her walls burn, laying plain oppressions both buried and overt with beauty, power, and courage."―
Molly Crabapple, author of Drawing Blood

STWTS Should Be Taught In Sex & Gender Courses
And I say this, having had my stent in one such class while in college, and if I was assigned this book to read, I probably would have felt as if I learned more.It is a beautiful thing to be able to see words within pages that perfectly describe what I have felt--still feel sometimes about street harassment and the various interactions I've had with men while in public.It is a VERY real thing and should not be brushed aside or swept under the proverbial rug.The artwork accompanying the stories helps to drive the power of the words home as well as what every woman, non-binary person, and trans-woman has experienced and how street harassment has shaped their lives. You can see the strain and exhaustion on every face.It also opens a door to dialogue and the changes men must make for this issue to become a non-issue.The author/artist did a phenomenal job with this book, and I am happy to have it as a part of my collection and favorite reads.

    This is a book just about every female presenting woman can relate with and one every man should read. While it’s not graphic in any way, there are still moments that may be hard or triggering to read depending on the type of street harassment you’ve faced in the past. I love that she gives a voice to so many woman of different races, religions, ages, and gender representation. The author does a great job of providing a way to explain to men why street harassment bothers so many women and is not actually seen as a compliment to us. I first experienced her art while I was away at school and it wasn’t til a year later that I found out who was behind the art. It was thanks to Spike Lee’s show She’s Gotta Have It that I was able to find out who she was and I immediately looked her up to find out more about her art and this series. Her work was so relatable and beautiful that I often found myself walking past it as it was hung close to where I was living at that time. It was comforting and empowering to see someone speaking up about this finally. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is trying to understand the message behind this particular street art series, or if you feel this may be a triggering read for you, I at least recommend looking up the artwork and following her journey. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    Tatyana is not only an exceptional artist, but also an author and an activist with a powerful message. The messages her art conveys has gained momentum on both national and international platforms. Her art is beautifully bold in demanding respect.

  • Reviewed in the United States on March 4, 2020
    This book is perfect example of what is wrong with US the people. Inter-sectionalism and the promotion of the physiological/biological uniqueness of self, over the community greater homogeny.

    There is nothing wrong with celebrating one's own achievements, as long as the pedestal is equally shared among all people, regardless of color, gender, religion ... you name it. Once you start gathering points for your uniqueness; (Sex orientation, race, gender, victim of violence, religion, origin....) and then shove it down the throat of your community, demanding respect because you have accumulated more points than others, then that is the end of any homogeny. The death of community.

    Once we start to care more about the other person in equal measure to caring for one self, than we create communities. Think on that next time you Troll, PC someones speech, lecture on the superiority of one sex over other, when you demand that emotional intelligence be above factual evidence. Or when you scream "victimhood" because a man held the door for you, in the face of someone who has been brutally violated but does not find it necessary to make a spectacle of one self, in the name of gathering "points" on the board of inter-sectionalism.
