Viac o knihe

Focusing on the welfare rights movement, this book explores the activism of poor women on AFDC from the early 1960s to the mid-1970s. These women fought for welfare reform, dignity, and financial support to care for their children, advocating for the right to welfare. The movement transcended political boundaries, intertwining women's rights, economic justice, and empowerment for black women. Members actively challenged stereotypes, engaged in Congressional discussions, and developed a nuanced political framework that combined race, class, gender, and culture.
