The Radical Women Manifesto
The complete guide to Radical Women -- a thriving activist, multiracial, queer and straight socialist feminist organization, founded in 1967 and still as subversive as ever! This updated edition of a women's liberation classic is an exhilarating exploration of Marxist feminist theory and activism. It is a unique and valuable resource -- a handbook for feminist organizing, a history of Radical Women's impressive work, and a sourcebook of feminist thinking on a wide range of issues. "Founded in Seattle in 1967, the working-class feminist group Radical Women continues to fight for social justice, freedom from oppression, and an end to capitalism. This Manifesto covers the history and theoretical underpinnings of the movement, from its Marxist origins to the present day, and establishes the goals and structures for Radical Women of today. This visionary Manifesto is for today's warriors, wherever we are. It's a brilliant guide toward our common goal: freedom." -- Debbie Brennan, Melbourne, Australia

Contrary to clichés about the end of feminism, Deborah Siegel argues that younger women are reliving the battles of its past, and reinventing it--with a vengeance. From feminist blogging to the popularity of the WNBA, girl culture is on the rise. A lively and compelling look back at the framing of one of the most contentious social movements of our time, Sisterhood, Interrupted exposes the key issues still at stake, outlining how a twenty-first century feminist can reconcile the personal with the political and combat long-standing inequalities that continue today.
Feminist Generations
The radical feminist movement has undergone significant transformation over the past four decades—from the direct action of the 1960s and 1970s to the backlash against feminism in the 1980s and 1990s. Drawing on organizational documents and interviews with both veterans of the women's movement and younger feminists in Columbus, Ohio, Nancy Whittier traces the changing definitions of feminism as the movement has evolved.

The collective stories of the women—many of them lesbians and lesbian feminists whom the author shows to be centra...

Radical Women in Latin America
The rationale stated for studying radical women of Latin America is first to throw light on the development of dictatorship and authoritarianism, second to transcend the stereotype of inherently violent men and inherently peaceful women, and finally to demonstrate that there is no automatic sisterhood among women even of the same class and ethnicity. Brief chronologies of three countries each in Central and South America open the two sections. The contributors are historians and political scientists primarily from the US.
