Women in the Sanctuary Movement

by Robin Lorentzen

Using twenty-nine interviews with women involved in eight local sanctuary sites, this work explores the workings of the sanctuary movement; the reasons for their commitment to this illegal activity; the relationship between their activism, liberation theology and feminism; and the tensions among the women and between women and men in the movement.
