Politics. Cultural Writing. New to SPD. The award-winning feminist and lesbian press Firebrand Books closed its doors last year after sixteen years in the business. The authors of YOURS IN STRUGGLE -- Elly Bulkin, Minnie Bruce Pratt, and Barbara Smith -- have now made the 1988 Firebrand edition of their collaborative work available through SPD. They write, YOURS IN STRUGGLE happened because we were able to talk to each other in the fist place, despite our very different identities and backgrounds -- white Christian-raised Southerner, Afro-American, Ashkenazi Jew. Each of us speaks only for herself, and we do not necessarily agree with each other. Yet we believe our cooperation on this book indicates concrete possibilities for coalition work.

Lesbian Poetry, an Anthology

Donna Nevel

This book explores the intersection of Islamophobia and Israel-and the ways that the U.S. "war on terror" impacts both. The authors challenge the Jewish community's use of a "pro-Israel" litmus test of who is a "good" Muslim;" trace the funding connections and other links between Islamophobia and right-wing pro-Israel supporters; document the ADL's history of anti-Muslim and anti-Arab actions; and analyze two high-profile post-9/11 anti-Muslim campaigns.
