Description:

Radical Sistersoffers a fresh exploration of the ways that 1960s political movements shaped local, grassroots feminism in Washington, D.C. While most historiography on the subject tends to portray the feminist movement as deeply divided over issues of race, Anne M. Valk presents a more nuanced account, showing feminists of various backgrounds both coming together to promote a notion of "sisterhood" and being deeply divided along the lines of class, race, and sexuality. Anne M. Valk is the associate director for programs for the John Nicholas Brown Center at Brown University.
