The genius and mystery of social movements "How do social movements arise, wield power, and decline? Renowned scholar Linda Gordon investigates these questions in a groundbreaking work, narrating the stories of many of America's most influential twentieth-century social movements. Beginning with the turn-of-the-century settlement house movement, Gordon then scrutinizes the 1920s Ku Klux Klan and its successors, the violent American fascist groups of the 1930s. Profiles of two Depression-era movements follow--the Townsend campaign that brought us Social Security and the creation of unemployment aid. Proceeding then to the 1955 Montgomery bus boycott, which inspired the civil rights movement and launched Martin Luther King Jr.'s career, the narrative barrels into the 1960s-70s with Cesar Chavez's farmworkers' union. The concluding chapter illumines the 1970s women's liberation movement through the dramatic story of the Boston-area organizations Bread and Roses and the Combahee River Collective. Separately and together, these seven chapters animate American history, reminding us of the power of collective activism."-- Publisher description Ku Klux Klan (1915- ) History Ku Klux Klan (1915- ) Historia 46815 United Farm Workers History Trabajadores Agrícolas Unidos Historia 49807 Social movements United States History 20th century Movimientos sociales Estados Unidos Historia Siglo XX 44191 Social change United States History 20th century Cambio social Estados Unidos Historia Siglo XX 2738 Social justice United States History 20th century Justicia social Estados Unidos Historia Siglo XX 2405 Montgomery Bus Boycott, Montgomery, Ala., 1955-1956 Boicot de autobuses de Montgomery (Montgomery, Alabama), 1955-1956 49808 Feminism United States History 20th century Feminismo Historia Estados Unidos 35682 http://id.loc.gov/resources/instances/in00024406571 http://id.loc.gov/ontologies/bibframe/instanceOf http://id.loc.gov/resources/works/in00024406571 DLC bibframe2marc v3.1-dev 20260121 DLC https://github.com/lcnetdev/bibframe2marc/tree/v3.1-dev 7 cbc copycat 2 ncip 20 y-gencatlg lcc BK cmc 127824 127824 0 0 lcc 0 0 CS BJB BJB CS 2026-07-22 0 HN 57 G663s 2025 00000201704 2026-07-22 10:51:00 1 2026-07-22 BK
