Contents [ edit ]
The collection addresses several major issues including "the need for radical feminism, the discrimination women experienced from men in the political left, and the blatant sexism faced in the workplace."[5]
It includes classic feminist essays and writings by activists such as Naomi Weisstein , Kate Millett , Eleanor Holmes Norton , Florynce Kennedy , Frances M. Beal , Lucinda Cisler , Joreen , Marge Piercy , Lynn Strongin , and Mary Daly , as well as historical documents including the N.O.W. Bill of Rights, excerpts from the SCUM Manifesto , the Redstockings Manifesto, and historical documents from W.I.T.C.H. It also includes a document from the Black Women's Liberation Group from Mount Vernon ; this piece demonstrates the race-conscious "sisterhood" that some second-wave black feminists demanded and was used by many second-wave feminists to communicate this demand.[6] [7]

The Oxford English Dictionary Robin Morgan with first using the term "herstory " in print in the book. Concerning the feminist organization W.I.T.C.H., Morgan wrote:
The fluidity and wit of the witches is evident in the ever-changing acronym: the basic, original title was Women's International Terrorist Conspiracy from Hell [...] and the latest heard at this writing is Women Inspired to Commit Herstory."[10] [11]
Morgan established the first American feminist grant-giving organization, The Sisterhood Is Powerful Fund, with the royalties from Sisterhood Is Powerful .[9]
