Description:The women most crucial to the feminist movement that emerged in the 1960's arrived at their commitment & consciousness in response to the unexpected & often shattering experience of having their work minimized, even disregarded, by the men they considered to be their colleagues & fellow crusaders in the civil rights & radical New Left movements. On the basis of years of research, interviews with dozens of the central figures & her own personal experience, Evans explores how the political stance of these women was catalyzed & shaped by their sharp disillusionment at a time when their skills as political activists were newly & highly developed, enabling them to join forces to support their own cause.Acknowledgments1: Prologue: Cracks in the mold2: Southern white women in a Southern black movement3: Going south 4: Black power-catalyst for feminism5: A reassertion of the personal 6: Let the people decide 7: The failure of success-women in the movement8: The dam breaks 9: Personal politicsAppendicesNotesSelected BibliographyIndexWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
