This took me a few false starts before I finally got through the book. This book was published 40 years ago and the issues surrounding the feminist movement are still very relevant. It’s important to note that lesbians have come a long way since Professor Lorde’s time, but she talks about the Idea that the women’s movement was very anti lesbian. The movement, thanks to her and the rest of the Combahee River Collective has really made the movement more inclusive of queer people and the issues they face as well as the struggles of women of color. I am glad to have read this because I know one thing. The movement has come very far but it still has so far to go when it comes to acknowledging the racism deeply entrenched in the history of the movement for women’s liberation.

An informative collection. Surprisingly, it felt timeless. The points are all extremely poignant and relevant today.
