Catholic and Feminist
Henold, Mary J.
Catholic and Feminist the Surprising History of the American Catholic Feminist Movement. [electronic resource] : - Chapel Hill : University of North Carolina Press, 2008. - 1 online resource (304 p.)
In the first history of American Catholic feminism, Henold explores the movement from the 1960s through the early 1980s, showing that although Catholic feminists had much in common with their sisters in the larger American feminist movement, Catholic feminism was distinct and had not been simply imported from outside. Henold demonstrates that efforts to reconcile faith and feminism reveal both the complex nature of feminist consciousness and the creative potential of religious feminism.
