|
From the 1989 Redstockings Abortion speakout: "My name is Flo Kennedy and I'm a lawyer and I crawled off my death bed to come down here... I feel the speakout was absolutely fantastic... What we must remember is, every struggle pays off... and I think the next 20 years will find progression depended on the amount of struggle." |
FOUND AT LAST, 1994: "We are the ones that have had the abortions... This is why we're here tonight, to make things come home... We are the only experts." - A women testifying in 1969. |
FOUND IN 2022! A great find in a time of high urgency for the abortion rights battle! Partial audio recently found!

FREEDOM FOR WOMEN: FORGING THE WOMEN'S LIBERATION MOVEMENT, 1953-1970 Co-founder of Gainesville (Florida) Women's Liberation in 1968 and longtime Redstocking, Carol Giardina provides a largely untold history of the early years of the Women's Liberation Movement in the United States. Among other contributions, this book takes a much-needed close look at the crucial role of Black feminist leaders and examines how Civil Rights activists in the southern university town of Gainesville helped spur the revival of radical feminism worldwide. Drawing extensively from previously unavailable original sources from the Redstockings Archives - including pamphlets, journals, and correspondence - Freedom for Women seeks to reclaim the radical roots and fuel the future prospects of the WLM and the Left in the U.S.A. (University Press of Florida, 2010.) To learn more about the book and order a copy, read the Redstockings press release here.
WOMEN'S STUDIES OR WOMEN'S LIBERATION STUDIES? Carol Giardina, as a Gainesville Women's Liberation organizer and Redstocking, challenges Women's Studies to return to its Women's Liberation Movement roots and purpose. "The first reason to learn history is to learn that the important things we have now were taken in a fight... taken, not given.... You can't have a Women's Studies program and won't have one much longer unless there is a movement against the oppression of women." Presented for Women's History Month at the University of Florida, Gainesville, 1991. 8 1/2 X 11 pamphlet, 11 pages. Only logged in users click here for full PDF. |
