THE MOVEMENT How Women's Liberation Transformed America 1963-1973

The illuminating story of the Women's Liberation movement in the pivotal period of 1963-1973 is powerfully told by multiple narrators who give voice to nearly 150 women activists and nearly 20 men. This inclusive work creates a representative account of Second Wave Feminism by centering contributions from women of color and queer women. Kamali Minter, Janina Edwards, Natalie Naudus, and the others in this stellar lineup of narrators give attuned performances of interview selections, speeches, and media coverage. The narrators' voices become part of a nuanced narrative, embodying Flo Kennedy, Shirley Chisholm, Billie Jean King, and other influential figures as they share perspectives on topics like abortion rights, workplace discrimination, and representation in government. Contemporary listeners may hear themselves reflected in this audio production as advocacy efforts continue. J.R.T. © AudioFile 2024, Portland, Maine [Published: NOVEMBER 2024]
