Information About

Jo Freeman




Freeman has won various awards for her scholarly involvement in politics and feminism, including the American Political Science Association prize for the Best Scholarly Work on Women in Politics (1975).

In 1970, her 1969 "BITCH Manifesto" appeared in the book ''Notes from the Second Year'' by Shulamith Firestone and Anne Koedt. It now appears in numerous Women's Studies textbooks as an example of early Language Reclamation applied to the word Bitch and the celebration of non-traditional Gender Role s.
