Powers of Desire: The Politics of Sexuality por Anne Snitow
This is a collection of essays ranging from historical analysis to political commentary. Excellent academic, feminist collection about sex and sexuality.
This is a collection of memoirs from the second wave of American feminism. There are different perspectives of the priorities of the movement, and paints a vivid picture of the times. Most of the people (so far) came out of the Civil Rights and Student Movements of the times, which I'm pretty familiar with. I'm not as familiar with the labor movements of the earlier part of the century, where some of these women came out of. I want to learn more about that.

What made me pick this book up from the library was that Minnie Bruce Pratt had an entry in it, and that did not disappoint.… (más)
