Alice Echols

Alice Echols is a cultural critic and a historian of the 1960's. [http://www.littlebrown.co.uk/Authors/E/1186 ]

She authored (with foreword by Ellen Willis), "Daring to Be Bad: Radical Feminism in America 1967-1975". This book is divided into six sections, each of which attempts to explain the evolution of the women’s rights movement in America from 1967-1975. This book is a testament to the validity of feminism as a philosophy and also serves as a written record for feminist history. Echols writes primarily about feminist organizations and how they functioned in comparison to other civil rights groups of the time period.
