This collection of essays from the pioneering journal Feminist Studies focuses on women engaged in struggles of many kinds over the course of United States history. From its inception, Feminist Studies and its contributors have linked scholarship to activism and made major contributions to the development of women's history. U.S. Women in Struggle gathers a selection of the strongest pieces published in the journal from the mid-1970s to the mid-1990s—a dynamic time in women's history and activism.
