Confronting Rape: The Feminist Anti-Rape Movement and the State

by Nancy A. Matthews

Book Overview

This work documents two decades of anti-rape activism in the USA. From grass-roots efforts to the institutionalization of state-funded rape crisis centres, the movement has changed public thinking about sexual assault significantly. Activists in rape crisis centres across the US created a feminist success story, although not always as they would choose.
