Revolutionary Feminists – Barbara Winslow comes On the Barricades!

Many of the rights we enjoy today were won through hard-fought battles. Too often we forget that real women sacrificed so that today we can enjoy freedoms that once seemed unattainable. Imagine a world where you risked sterilization if you were a black woman, where you couldn't have a card in your name, where you couldn't have a termination. It's the world in which Barbara Winslow and other feminist fighters organized to build a better world. In a commendable initiative, she wrote about these fighters who in the Seatle of the 60s, and 70s changed society from the ground up. Her work ”Revolutionary Feminists: The Women's Liberation Movement in Seattle” was published in August this year. We invited Barbara to chat with us about her book, the defeats, but most of all the victories of the women's liberation movement.
