Politics. Cultural Writing. 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, Radical Women Organizer, Melbourne, Australia.
I thought feminism only appealed to white women and upper class women but this book changed my perspective as a queer young urban Chicana. I joined in 2002 and since then Radical Women has given me the encouragement and confidence to do the movement building it takes for real radical women's leadership. My sisters' and I want you to check this book out and get in contact with us. Let's work together!
Entertaining and Informative

I was looking for something that would give me hope for the feminist movement...and I found it. The intro was easy to read and educational. I was intriqued by the historical information, the analysis and the "what to do" platform. And since it's written by women who are doing grassroots organizing, it's down to earth reading.
