ARMED LOVE 5 - Radical Feminism w/ Jenny Brown
Added 2022-11-16 11:00:06 +0000 UTCJenny Brown is an organizer with National Women’s Liberation, the author of Without Apology: The Abortion Struggle Now, and a former collaborator with the Redstockings. We talk about the how radical feminism/women's liberation went from a splinter of the New Left to shaping the course of women's struggles around the world, how their politics are misunderstood today, how their demands for repealing all laws on abortion was recuperated by a supreme court in need of legitimacy, and why the political class today strips those rights.
