A Politically Incorrect Feminist

In A Politically Incorrect Feminist, author Phyllis Chesler shares a candid memoir about the trailblazers of Second Wave Feminism who fought for women's rights between 1972 and 1975. With engaging anecdotes, she recounts their groundbreaking activism, from integrating want ads and launching class action lawsuits to opening shelters for battered women and leading public discussions on topics like sexual harassment and abortion. Chesler, who interacted with influential figures such as Gloria Steinem and Andrea Dworkin, paints a vivid picture of these fierce women who transformed societal perceptions and became pivotal historical figures.
