I love the name Against the Current and would add that to be active in the Womens Liberation Movement at the beginning of 1968 was to be against the current. And the current then was as much the Left and the Black Nationalist Movement as it was the society as a whole. We were mostly white women, mostly middle class in background. Who we were was used against us opportunistically by the Left and the Black Movement to keep from having to address the issues of sexism a word we didnt even have back then.
