Looking back to move forward,
By Omi (Brooklyn, New York) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Abortion without Apology: A Radical History for the 1990s (South End Press Pamphlet) (Paperback)
With abortion rights in serious danger, this book gives a historical perspective that is inclusive of women of color input and experience. Kudos to the author for her honesty about women of color and the abortion rights movement at that time.

This review is from: Abortion without Apology: A Radical History for the 1990s (South End Press Pamphlet) (Paperback)
I was part of the development of this project during it creation and had totally forgotten about my quotes and the work of that time. The book is now being use by an instuctor for a course on the history of women's rights. A friend's daughter, who is taking the course, called screamming "You never told us you did this type of activism" My response was you never asked! And I haven't stopped it just on a different level and a different set of itssues for womyn of color." I brought the book to take a look back and to see how far we have come or the ground we have lost. Thank you so much for giving me the ability to do that.
Still an activist for womyn of color rights, SoJourner McCauley
