With this book Chancer takes stock of the American feminist movement. She articulates four common causes ( advancing political and economic equality, allowing intimate and sexual freedom, ending violence against women and expanding the cultural representation of women ) considering each in turn to assess what has been gained (or not). It is around these shared concerns, Chancer argues, that we can continue to build a vibrant and expansive feminist movement and articulates a broad agenda developed through advancing intersectional concerns about class, race, and sexuality.
