Answer the following statement(s) true (T) or false (F)
1. Their commitment to equality gave them a deep suspicion of hierarchy and led to leaderless discussions. 2. Radical feminists employed revolutionary analysis and politics and high-profile events to raise awareness of the oppression of women. 3. Some women involved with radical movements formed organizations to represent concerns of women of color. Radical feminism also fostered the activism of many lesbian, bisexual, trans, and gender nonconforming women who were not included in the political agendas of other movements. 4. One important outcome of radical feminism was the identification of the structural basis of women’s oppression. The connection between individual situations and social structures and practices was captured in the idea that “the personal is political.” 5. Another branch, mainstream second-wave feminism, which advocates women’s social, economic, educational, and political equality, was ignited by the publication of Betty Friedan’s The Feminine Mystique in 1963.
