Califia Women

the long version

"Launched in 1975, the Califia Community organized activist educational camps and other programs in southern California until its dissolution in 1987. An alternative to mainstream academia's attempts to tie feminism to university courses, Califia blended aspects of feminism that spanned the labels "second wave" and "radical," attracting women from a range of gender expressions, sexual orientations, class backgrounds, and races or ethicities. Califia women captures the history of the organization through oral history interviews, archives, and other forms of primary research."--Book jacket.
