I enjoyed how Clara presented her research for this book. It was easy to understand and laid out thoughtfully for the reader. It's extensive and interesting. Thanks to NetGalley for the ARC.

It feels prescient (one hopes!) for this book to be released a few months before the 2024 presidential election, where abortion will be a front and center issue.

I love reading history in this format, sort of “as told by” as I think it adds texture that strictly academic works can’t quite capture. This is very well-researched, well-formatted, and I especially like that it gets to the difficulties that intersectional feminism faced at a time when the fight for civil rights was broad.

Highly recommend for anyone wanting to revisit this period of history. Thanks to NetGalley and the publishers for the ARC.

Bingham has written an excellently research, compelling and accessible chronicle of the women’s movement of the 1960s-1970s. The book’s unique style features firsthand accounts of the era from women and men who led and participated in the fight for equal rights and women’s liberation throughout the era. These personal narratives are woven together in a sort of written documentary style that forms a chorus of different, complementary and overlapping voices giving a fuller picture of the events. This is a great introduction to the era for anyone interested in learning more about second wave feminism and just how far we’ve come.
