How do you stay committed to the struggle when political assaults occur almost daily? Marie Equi kept up a steady stream of dissent and protests for seven years. During strikes, free speech fights, demands for women’s rights, and peace, she persisted and fought for justice. How did she manage to stay engaged maintaining a profession and a personal life?
“Marie Equi: Radical Politics and Outlaw Passions” tells it all. Selected as a 2016 Stonewall Honor Book for Nonfiction by the American Library Association. Available at bookstores and online.
I wrote the biography of Marie Equi because I was drawn to her passion for justice, her status as an outsider (she was working class and a lesbian), and her determination to live independently. If you’re new to her story, check out the book video and my website, www.MichaelHelquist.com.
