Sisterhood and after
History of the UK Women's Liberation Movement. Oral history testimonies power the work, tracing the arc of a feminist life from 1950s girlhoods to late life activism today. The author uses oral history as creative method, making significant use of ‘Sisterhood and After: The Women's Liberation Oral History Project’ to animate still-unresolved controversies of race, class, sexuality, disability, and feminist identity. She provides insight into iconic actions including the Miss World Protest, the fight to protect abortion rights, and the peace protest at Greenham Common. She also explores men's violence and today's demands for trans-liberation as areas of continuing feminist concern.- Creator

Rassismen & Feminismen
Papers van het gelijknamige congres in Wenen (1994).In deze bundel benadrukken de auteurs dat nationalisme, antisemitisme en racisme genderspecifiek geconstrueerd zijn en dat vrouwen ook verschillende en complexe posities innemen binnen het krachtenveld van overheersing en ondergeschiktheid. Solidariteit tussen vrouwen komt hierbij in het geding. Het boek is verdeeld in vier hoofdstukken: 'Differenzen und Machtverhältnisse : feministische Analysen', 'Rassismen und Nationalismen: Frauen als Täterinnen und Komplizinnen': 'Marginalität und Ausgrenzung', Feministische Visionen: politische solidarität, eine Utopie?'.- Creator
