Bonnie D. Morris and D-M Withers, The Feminist Revolution

The Feminist Revolution revisits the second wave of women’s liberation activism in both the U.S. and England in a thematic, beautifully illustrated volume that is part coffee-table art book, part teaching text. Nine chapters look critically at the key aspects of feminist action in the 1963–1988 era: political equality, work and wages, black feminism, lesbian identity, reproductive rights and health, art and publishing, anti-war activism, and much more. Each chapter contains several sidebars on specific turning points or institutions, with careful attention to lesbian leadership in each–films, publishing, legal rights, and the women’s music movement.
