"If you've done *any* thinking/learning about Feminism in the US, you will have come across women of color who have attested to the exclusionary (white-privileged, -centered) nature of the movement through the ages. If you are in any way confused as to why this is, read this book.

"This Bridge..." incorporates incisive analysis, wandering prose, poetry, correspondence, and theatre written by Black, Latina/Chicana, Asian, & Native women in the US -- many of whom are queer. Though published in 1980 (i think) many of the critiques and struggles seem persistent today.

Another powerful aspect of the book is the exploration by women writers of writing as a tool of empowerment."

"i found a copy of this book for $5 in tucson when i was there recently, & it's yet another i seriously cannot believe i didn't read years ago. as it turns out, pretty much everything i like about feminism has its roots here & in earlier radical women of color texts like the combahee river collective statement.

somehow this book is out of print, but don't let that stop you."

"A great intro to intersectionality: how race, gender, sexuality, immigration status, language, and class interact with each other in the lives of women of color in the US. An anthology of personal experience in poems, theory, essays, letters, and interviews.

This book must have been groundbreaking when it came out in 1981. The authors repeatedly write about how they could find nothing in contemporary literature on race and gender that spoke to the complexities of oppression and resistance in their lives. Without a cannon to fall back on, they decided to take the task on themselves. "This Bridge Called My Back" is an important read both for its (still relevant) analysis, and as a primary source critique of second wave feminism that was dominated by the needs and interests of middle class, white heterosexual women.

A few really great essays, but the book is best taken as a whole."
