Description
In Finding the Movement, Anne Enke reveals that diverse women?s engagement with public spaces gave rise to and profoundly shaped second-wave feminism. Focusing on women?s activism in Detroit, Chicago, and Minneapolis-St. Paul during the 1960s and 1970s, Enke describes how women across race and class created a massive groundswell of feminist activism by directly intervening in the urban landscape.
