Through the Eyes of Rebel Women: The Young Lords 1969-1976

THROUGH THE EYES OF REBEL WOMEN: The Young Lords, 1969-1976 is the first account about the experiences of women members — a "story within a story" told from the inside out.

The Young Lords emerged in the late sixties to fight poverty, racial and gender inequality, and the colonial status of Puerto Rico.

Women joined to build a people' s justice movement and fought the “revolution within the revolution” believing that women’ s equality was inseparable from the society’ s progress as a whole.
