No Turning Back: The Feminist Resource Site

Hello! This page has been developed to link readers to resources mentioned in No Turning Back. As I speak about the book around the country, people frequently ask me how they can become involved with issues, communities, and organizations. I hope this page can help point readers to further information about feminism in both the past and the present.

For teachers assigning No Turning Back in their classrooms, the following links include local and international organizations mentioned in the chapters, statistics, online art, and primary historical documents.  You can suggest new links below. You can also find historical documents mentioned in No Turning Back in The Essential Feminist Reader (2007).
