Summary Annotation Karla Jays memoir of an age whose tumultuous social and political movements fundamentally reshaped American culture takes readers from her early days in the 1968 Columbia University student riots to her post-college involvement in New York radical womens groups and the New York Gay Liberation Front to Southern California in the early 70s, where she continued in the battle for gay civil rights. We see here helping to organize the takeover of The Ladies Home Journal and ogle-inswhere women staked out Wall Street and whistled at the men. We follow her in the fast lane of the sexual freedom movement as she liberates sun worshippers from their bathing suits.
