Opis

Lesbian activists of all kinds--scientists, political strategists, artists, writers, fundraisers, community organizers, and more--explain how they deal with raising and allocating money. Everyday Mutinies: Funding Lesbian Activism offers the voices of such well-known activists as Martina Navratilova, Alison Bechdel, Dee Mosbacher, and Jewelle Gomez discussing taboo subjects, including class, inherited wealth, and getting paid for working on lesbian causes.
