It seems clear to me that the women's movement in Boston hasn't really been doing much this year as compared to last year.

Untying the Knot

Jo Freeman

Unstructured groups do not rise above hierarchy; rather they just create their own informal elites who are completely unaccountable to anyone.

The two essays contained in Untying the Knot relate both to how we organise radical groups and how we act as radicals so as to avoid a disordered political movement. Since being written in the early 1970s, both these essays have had a profound influence on both the feminist and anarchist movements world-wide.
