<h1>Im <b>Sophie Lewis</b>, writer, speaker, teacher, and recovering academic.</h1>
Ian Bonaparte, of Janklow & Nesbit, is my literary agent, and you can contact him at [ibonaparte@janklow.com](mailto:ibonaparte@janklow.com).
I am working on a book about “enemy feminisms”: eugenic, bioconservative, capitalist and imperial feminisms, cis feminisms that rely on narratives of so-called white slavery, femonationalism, and trans-exclusionary feminism.
Right now, my first book: _Full Surrogacy Now: Feminism Against Family_, published by Verso Books in 2019, is available as an Audiobook, and you can find more about it [here](/writing/full-surrogacy-now/).
My short book on family abolition, _Abolish the Family: A Manifesto for Care and Liberation_, is forthcoming from Verso in 2022.
I have a “Visiting Scholar” title at the Center for Research in Feminist, Queer and Transgender Studies at the University of Pennsylvania. However, I am supported by my [patreon][patreon] subscribers, speaking fees, and Brooklyn Institute course enrollees. Check out [my course offerings here](https://thebrooklyninstitute.com/people/sophie-lewis/).

Since 2013, I have lectured in thirty cities and written for dozens of magazines and journals, including _The New York Times_. I hope you enjoy my video and essay archives and consider supporting my work.
