Description
This text examines the divisions in academic feminist dialogue. Whilst some feminists debate their histories and future legacies, some older, second wave feminists accuse the younger ones of being overly theoretical, insufficiently political, and not grateful enough to previous generations. In addition, some third wave feminists consider their foremothers naive or elitist, resentful of deviations from their established plans and improperly wielding their power. "Generations" seeks to address these divisions through analysis of the challenges of passing the torch.
