"Women and Revolution began as a publication of Spartacist members together with others from the left-feminist milieu in the San Francisco Bay Area who were won to the understanding that the struggle against women's oppression was inseparable from the liberation of the working class from the yoke of capitalist society. Issues Nos.1 and 2, bearing the legend "The Newspaper of Revolutionary Women's Liberation," were published by Revolutionary Women of the Bay Area. With the coalescing of circles of women around the Spartacist program in several cities throughout the country, Women and Revolution was formed as a national organization, and Issue No.3 was published in New York. The Commission for Work Among Women was established under the direction of the SL Central Committee. Thereafter, beginning with Issue No.4 (Fall 1973), Women and Revolution was published under its auspices" (https://www.marxists.org/history/etol/newspape/w&r/subjectindex.txt). (Inventory #: 48790)
