Feminism Unfinished: A Short, Surprising History of American Women's Movements by Dorothy Sue Cobble

2.0

I found this book poorly written and the history so shortened that it removed context, explanation of who people are, and made sweeping generalizations that are factually inaccurate. Race is also handled very poorly in this book in terms of both odd generalizations in addition to using language that is outdated & offensive- FWIW all three authors are white women and this book was published in 2015 as far as I can tell. Although this is supposed to be a straightforward retelling of history I also felt like this book leaned toward implying that the nonprofit/corporate model in addition to electoral politics is the "right" way to work towards women's liberation rather than a grassroots movement.
