Have we come a long way? It has been more than 40 years since the Radical Feminist Movement emerged to demand equal rights for American women. How effective has that movement been? This book offers a deeper understanding of the movement, its goals, and of the trailblazers who fought to change the male-dominated status quo. It provides a current, comprehensive introduction to the Radical Feminists of the 1960s and 1970s, familiarizing readers with the individuals, organizations, actions, and philosophies that comprised this now-historic movement. Of course, the feminists of the 1960s and 1970s stood on the shoulders of the crusaders who came before. Thus, the book looks at important historical events that paved the way for Radical Feminism, also examining the influence of the Women's Suffrage, Civil Rights, and New Left Movements. Specific social and political issues that concerned the Radical Feminists are explored, including sexuality, sex roles, contraception, and abortion; equal opportunity; feminism in the media; and women in leadership. Finally, the work scrutinizes the fate of the Radical Feminists and their legacy, discussing how their work affected the women's movement overall and how it affects the women and men of today. 650 0 $a Feminists $z United States $x History. 650 0 $a Feminism $z United States $x History. 650 0 $a Radicals $z United States $x History. 650 0 $a Radicalism $z United States $x History. 830 0 $a Guides to subcultures and countercultures. 941 $a 3 952 $l PQAX094 $d 20231214045947.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20160825093528.0 952 $l UNUX074 $d 20120515011714.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=A007A65A9E5311E1B4D4F9A76AFF544EInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
