Radical Women, founded in 1967 in Seattle, Washington, is a revolutionary faction within the women’s movement and a prominent feminist voice on the Left. The organization fights against racism, sexism, homophobia, anti-trans discrimination, and labor exploitation, while advocating for multi-issue organizing that prioritizes the needs of the most marginalized communities. The 1975 Radical Women Manifesto: Theory, Program, & Structure critiques the capitalist system’s oppression of women, arguing that sexism stems from economic inequalities and the patriarchal family structure. It calls for a socialist revolution to achieve women’s liberation, while outlining the group’s political platform, principles, and organizational structure.
