Description: Pamphlet by the Alliance Against Women's Oppression (AAWO), formerly the Third World Women's Alliance (TWWA), providing a detailed history of the TWWA and outlining the political platform of the new organization. Undated, but probably 1980 based on internal evidence. Black-and-white illustrations. Stapled in pictorial card wrappers. 8.5 x 5.5 inches; [2], 30 pages. Rear wrapper with a light crease and a touch of wear to one corner. Near Fine.

Provides a most interesting analysis of why the organization, which had been limited to women of color, subsequently opened membership to white women with anti-capitalist and feminist views. The pamphlet also reviews the organization's platform on imperialism, racism, and the oppression of women and LGBTQ+ individuals. Uncommon, with Worldcat showing just six institutional holdings.
