Swinth's point is that the history of post-WWII feminism is far more complex than today's pundits make it out to be, and that we accept reductionist sloganeering at the risk of losing important lessons from our past...It achieves the goal of depicting a rich and varied movement, full of difference, diversity, and idealism., Swinth reveals the 'having it all' myth for what it truly is--a backlash against feminism masquerading as feminism. In its place, she unearths what feminists actually fought for, and sometimes, against great odds, achieved. Her brilliant reconstruction of the wide-ranging activism of 1960s and 1970s feminists rescues their work from contemporary parodies and enables it to serve, once again, as a template for the fairer world that we may yet achieve., Swinth reveals the 'having it all' myth for what it truly is-a backlash against feminism masquerading as feminism. In its place, she unearths what feminists actually fought for, and sometimes, against great odds, achieved. Her brilliant reconstruction of the wide-ranging activism of 1960s and 1970s feminists rescues their work from contemporary parodies and enables it to serve, once again, as a template for the fairer world that we may yet achieve., Swinth systematically dismantles the myths and stereotypes about second-wave feminism that pervade our culture. Based on rigorous and extensive research, her book traces the numerous ways that feminists of all stripes worked to fight the dilemmas facing working mothers., Swinth makes the case that second-wave feminism was never about 'having it all'--it was about freeing women from the straitjacket of narrow gender roles and the economic penalties associated with all the unpaid labor that keeps society going.

Synopsis
Kirsten Swinth reconstructs the comprehensive vision of feminism's second wave at a time when its principles are under renewed attack. In the struggle for equality at home and at work, it was not feminism that failed to deliver on the promise that women can have it all, but a society that balked at making the changes for which activists fought., A spirited defense of feminism, arguing that the lack of support for working mothers is less a failure of second-wave feminism than a rejection by reactionaries of the sweeping changes they campaigned for. When people discuss feminism, they often lament its failure to deliver on the promise that women can "have it all." But as Kirsten Swinth argues in this provocative book, it is not feminism that has betrayed women, but a society that balked at making the far-reaching changes for which activists fought. Feminism's Forgotten Fight resurrects the comprehensive vision of feminism's second wave at a time when its principles are under renewed attack. Through compelling stories of local and national activism and crucial legislative and judicial battles, Swinth's history spotlights concerns not commonly associated with the movement of the 1960s and 1970s. We see liberals and radicals, white women and women of color, rethinking gender roles and redistributing housework. They brought men into the fold, and together demanded bold policy changes to ensure job protection for pregnant women and federal support for child care. Many of the creative proposals they devised to reshape the workplace and rework government policy-such as guaranteed incomes for mothers and flex time-now seem prescient. Swinth definitively dispels the notion that second-wave feminists pushed women into the workplace without offering solutions to issues they faced at home. Feminism's Forgotten Fight examines activists' campaigns for work and family in depth, and helps us see how feminism's opponents-not feminists themselves-blocked the movement's aspirations. Her insights offer key lessons for women's ongoing struggle to achieve equality at home and work., A spirited defense of feminism, arguing that the lack of support for working mothers is less a failure of second-wave feminism than a rejection by reactionaries of the sweeping changes they campaigned for.
