THROUGH THE EYES OF REBEL WOMEN: The Young Lords, 1969-1976 iTHROUGH THE EYES OF REBEL WOMEN: The Young Lords, 1969-1976 is the first account of women members -- a story within a story told from the inside out. The Young Lords Organization emerged in the late sixties to fight poverty, racial and gender inequality, and the colonial status of Puerto Rico. Women joined to build a people's movement for justice and fought the revolution within the revolution believing that women's equality was inseparable from the society's progress as a whole.

Written and edited by Iris Morales, THROUGH THE EYES OF REBEL WOMEN consists of essays, interviews, and primary source documents. Morales chronicles the revolutionary rise of the Young Lords, the role and contributions of women, the opening of branches in Puerto Rico, and the group's demise.
