The Invention of Heterosexuality3 reviews
Jonathan Ned Katz

Plume, 1996

Rare, Critical Look at "Normal"

+ Turning the tables
+ good intro to the social construction of sexuality

Jonathan Katz is a scrupulous, witty historian who gets better with every book. In "The Invention of Heterosexuality," Katz takes up one of the most neglected tasks in scholarship on sexuality, which is to look directly at what is considered 'normal', how it got to be considered normal, and how ...

Daring to Be Bad: Radical Feminism in America, 1967-75 (American Culture Series)3 reviews
Alice Echols

University of Minnesota Press, 1990

Amazing! A serious work that is also a delicious read!

+ Bad is Good!

Daring To Be Bad is an essential history of the Women's Liberation Movement. Daring is nuanced in that it connects this movement to other protest movements of the 60's while remaining true to the Women's Movement's distinctive arc. If you want to understand the vexed racial politics of Women's ...

An interesting, albiet dated film. I enjoyed it immensely. Then again, I didn't pay $195.00 for it, which is apparently your only option here. For a $15 dollar copy go to www.akpress.com Patria O Muerte! Venceremos!

1968: Marching in the Streets1 review
Tariq Ali, Susan Watkins

Free Press, 1998

A refreshing look at an amazing year

The authors say their book is simply a chronicle of 1968. But chronicles are rarely written with such deft dramatic irony, nor are they usually so ebullient or scattered with jokes. Tariq Ali and Susan Watkins have done something which is a challenge to any historian: they have made utopian ...
