2009 Reading #13: Women, Culture & Politics

Books 1-10.
11. Girls in Pants: The Third Summer of the Sisterhood by Ann Brashares.
12. Standing Fast: The Autobiography of Roy Wilkins by Roy Wilkins and Tom Mathews.

13. Women, Culture & Politics by Angela Y. Davis. This turns out not to be the best introduction to Davis's life and work, which I would have realized if I'd taken more than a cursory look at the book; it's a collection of speeches, essays, and book introductions which are occasionally interesting/insightful/harrowing, but aren't all that meaty on anything in particular. I think I'll try to get my hands on her autobiography for sometime in the future.
