Exploring self-narratives by six diverse women at the forefront of radical social change since 1900 - Jane Addams, Ida B. Wells, Emma Goldman, Dorothy Day, Angela Davis, Mary Crow Dog, and Betty Friedan - the author offers a breadth of perspectives to current dialogues on motherhood, essentialism, race, class, and feminism, and highlights the shifts in situated feminist rhetorics through the course of the last one hundred years. This book will be a timely instructional resource for all scholars and graduate students in rhetorical studies, composition, American literature, women studies, feminist rhetorics, and social justice"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Women $x Political activity $z United States. 650 0 $a Women political activists $z United States. 650 0 $a Women social reformers $z United States. 650 0 $a Autobiography $x Political aspects $z United States. 650 0 $a Rhetoric $x Political aspects $z United States. 650 0 $a Feminism $z United States $x History. 776 08 $i Online version: $a Ostman, Heather. $t American women activists and autobiography $d New York, NY : Routledge, 2022 $z 9781003195993 $w (DLC) 2021020696 830 0 $a Routledge studies in rhetoric and communication ; $v 41. 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20220506013207.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=B1E91B389ABF11EC841DE5674CECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
