- Description
- Swinth dispels the notion that second-wave feminists pushed women into the workplace without offering solutions to issues they faced at home. She examines activists’ campaigns for work and family in depth and helps us see how feminism’s opponents, not feminists themselves, blocked the movement’s aspirations. Liberals and radicals, white women and women of color, were rethinking gender roles and redistributing housework.
