Documenting key feminists who ignited the second wave women''s movement

Barbara J. Love’s Feminists Who Changed America, 1963-1975 will be the first comprehensive directory to document many of the founders and leaders (including both well-known and grassroots organizers) of the second wave women''s movement.  It tells the stories of more than two thousand individual women and a few notable men who together reignited the women''s movement and made permanent changes to entrenched customs and laws.

The biographical entries on these pioneering feminists represent their many factions, all parts of the country, all races and ethnic groups, and all political ideologies. Nancy Cott''s foreword discusses the movement in relation to the earlier first wave and presents a brief overview of the second wave in the context of other contemporaneous social movements.

There At The Dawning, the memories of Barbara J. Love, (other works include Sappho Was a Right-on Woman and Feminists Who Changed America 1963-1975), gives one a front-row seat to the LGBTQ+ and Women''s Liberation fights for civil rights, as well as an appreciation of the character and evolution of this extraordinary and successful social visionary. As Linda Clarke notes in the introduction, "There are lessons to be learned in this autobiographical journey. It might be just the book to inform the aspiration of our youngest troublemakers and risktakers, our newest generation to try and correct its own morally intolerable social problems. They will find here many cunning stratagems and new insights on how to practice disruption nonviolently and effectively. "
