"This collection will serve as an invaluable reader for anyone interested in issues of race, ethnicity, women, feminism, communities, radical movements, and sexual and identity politics in recent US history." -- Journal ofWomen's History"Chicana Feminist Thought is an exceptional text that not only explores the oppression experienced by the Chicanas from members of the dominant society, but also gives insight into tensions within the traditional community when it is confronted by those women who want to effect change and improve the status of women, as well as of their children and their community as a whole." -- NWSAJournal"This collection brings together the feminist documents that proliferated as women of el movimiento struggled to overcome sexist oppression in their search for a 'room of their own'." -- Latina
