Essential reading submitted by redwood on August 3, 2019, 9:11pm A landmark anthology of women of color feminism. Everyone read it. Please.

Revolutionary writings submitted by emileeione on August 30, 2020, 6:27am So many important and wonderful essays. Cherie Moraga’s work has stayed with me many years later after first reading it; words I’ve returned to several times.
