- Dodson's question really is simple: do women make a difference? The book includes the following features: it examines new effects of women on masculine institutions and masculine institutions on the women who work inside them. The author combines extensive quantitative research with innovative qualitative analysis to provide explanations behind the findings: she uses two most diametrically different contiguous Congresses in the last half century to explore the strategies likely to maximize substantive representation of women - irrespective of women's proportional presence,

- Description
- Through original oral history interviews with key activists and analysis of previously unexamined organizational records, Kimberly Springer traces the emergence, life, and decline of several black feminist organizations: the Third World Women’s Alliance, Black Women Organized for Action, the National Black Feminist Organization, the National Alliance of Black Feminists, and the Combahee River Collective. The first of these to form was founded in 1968: all five were defunct by 1980. Springer demonstrates that these organizations led the way in articulating an activist vision formed by the intersections of race, gender, class, and sexuality.. .The organizations Springer examines were the first to explicitly use feminist theory as a tool to further the work of previous black women’s organizations. As she describes, they emerged in response to marginalization in the civil rights and women’s movements, stereotyping in popular culture, and misrepresentation in public policy. Springer compares the organizations’ ideologies, goals, activities, memberships, leadership styles, finances, and communication strategies. Reflecting on the conflicts, lack of resources, and burnout that led to the demise of these groups, she considers the future of black feminist organizing, particularly at the national level. Living for the Revolution is an essential reference: it provides the history of a movement that influenced black feminist theory and civil rights activism for decades to come. .
