- Pro-Life Feminism: Yesterday and Today
Eds. Mary Krane Derr, Rachel MacNair, Linda Naranjo-Huebl
Pro-Life Feminism: Yesterday and Today is a very interesting and informative look at the broad scope of pro-life/feminist writings. Divided into two sections, Part One looks at the writings and speeches of early feminists (17901960) who opposed abortion. Part Two (1960present) looks at how pro-life feminism carries on the life-affirming heritage of the first wave of feminism, which puts it in stark contrast to the feminist movement saturated in abortion advocacy that the media adore.
