In 1915, Puerto Rican activist Luisa Capetillo was arrested for
wearing men's trousers in public. This act of rebellion was the
result of a lifelong devotion to socialist and feminist thought.
And this zeal runs throughout her brilliant essays: in the
challenges to big business, in her strident campaigning for the
legalization of divorce, in the championing of 'free love'. At once
a sharp critique and a celebration of world politics, A Nation of
Women embraces humanism and envisions a world in which economic and
social structures can be broken down, allowing both the worker and
the woman to be free.
