“What is a labour victory? I maintain that it is a twofold thing. Workers must gain economic advantage, but they must also gain revolutionary spirit, in order to achieve a complete victory. For workers to gain a few cents more a day, a few minutes less a day, and go back to work with the same psychology, the same attitude toward society is to achieve a temporary gain and not a lasting victory.” InspirationalSpiritOrderAttitudePsychologySocietyEconomicMinutesAchieveRevolutionVictoryGainsAdvantageLaborWorkersFeministRevolutionaryLabourLastingTemporaryCentsBack To WorkOrganized Labor Author:Elizabeth Gurley Flynn
“With a new familiarity and a flesh-creeping homeliness entirely of this unreal, materialistic world, where all sentiment is coarsely manufactured and advertised in colossal sickly captions, disguised for the sweet tooth of a monstrous baby called the Public, the family as it is, broken up on all hands by the agency of feminist and economic propaganda, reconstitutes itself in the image of the state.” WorldStatesHandsFamilyEconomicSweetBrokenBabyFeministFleshTeethPropagandaAgencySentimentsFamiliarityMonstrousUnrealMaterialisticColossalBroken UpCaptionSweet ToothMaterialistic World Book:The Art of Being Ruled Source: The Art of Being Ruled

“women's entry into the public sphere can be seen not merely as the result of contemporary economic pressures, the high rate of divorce, or the success of the feminist movement, but rather as a profound evolutionary response to a pervasive cultural crisis. Feminine principles are entering the public realm because we can no longer afford to restrict them to the private domestic sphere, nor allow a public culture obsessed with Warrior values to control human destiny if we are to survive.” IfsHumansValuesCultureWomenResultsPrinciplesDestinyEconomicMovementPressureCrisisProfoundResponseRateFeministDivorceContemporaryWarriorObsessedRealmsFeminineSpheresEnteringSocial ChangeEntryFeminist Movement Author:Sally Helgesen
“The parallel between antifeminism and race prejudice is striking. The same underlying motives appear to be at work, namely fear, jealousy, feelings of insecurity, fear of economic competition, guilt feelings, and the like. Many of the leaders of the feminist movement in the nineteenth-century United States clearly understood the similarity of the motives at work in antifeminism and race discrimination and associated themselves with the anti slavery movement.” StatesFeelingsUnitedRaceLeaderUnited StatesEconomicCenturyMovementRacismUnderstoodPrejudiceSlaveryGuiltCompetitionFeministDiscriminationMotiveInsecuritySexismParallelsSimilarityNineteenth CenturyFeminist MovementAnti SlaveryGuilt FeelingsEconomic Competition Author:Ashley Montagu
