The dynamic between feminists and the revolutionary left was complex. Many women who identified as socialist feminists were active in the autonomous women’s movement; others, in revolutionary left organizations. A number were active in both.
The documents in this section provide insight into how different revolutionary left groups responded to the growing struggles over women’s equality, both in theory and in action.
