A radical feminist Marxist has died. The author of The Dialectic of Sex: The Case for Feminist Revolution (1970) and a founding member of the New York Radical Women was found dead in her apartment on Tuesday.
I provide the following from her 1968 paper, “The Women’s Rights Movement in the U.S.: A New View:”
I would like to conclude from all this, that contrary to what most historians would have us believe, women’s rights were never won. The Women’s Rights Movement did not fold because it accomplished its objectives, but because it was essentially defeated and mischannelled. SEEMING freedoms appear to have been won
