I want to become educated on feminism

I've studied economy politics a deal, but on race and gender I'm ignorant. I hear we are in 4th wave feminism. Who are the big thinkers of feminism now? I support abortion, consent and respect. I think half the people deserve equal opportunity.

There are a number of feminist works one could suggest, but first, I'd recommend, these three classics:

"The Second Sex", by Simone de Beauvoir, "Sexual Politics", by Kate
Millet, and "Against Our Will: Men, Women and Rape" by Susan Brownmiller
