| Description | The Weathermen --a U.S.-based, revolutionary splinter group of Students for a Democratic Society-- advocated the overthrow of the government and capitalism, in the social and cultural environment of the New Left during the late 1960s. and toward that end, carried out a campaign of bombings, jailbreaks, and riots throughout the United States. In With the Weathermen Stern traces her involvement with this group, and her transformation from a shy, married graduate student into a go-go dancing, drugs, sex, street-fighting 'macho mama.' She describes the attractions and difficulties of joining a collective radical group and in maintaining a position within it. Stern's memoir offers a description of the raw and rough social dynamics of this community, from its strict demands to 'smash monogamy,' to its sometimes enforced orgies, and to the demeaning character assassination that was led by the group's top members. She provides a distinctly personal and female perspective on the destructive social functionality and frequently contradictory attitudes toward gender roles and women's rights within the New Left. |
