In 1970, Womens Liberation was sweeping the country. In the San Francisco Bay Area, some womens libbers came together and formed the San Francisco Womens Centers to help nurture newly emerging organizing efforts fighting for womens rights. Ten years later, this small grassroots group took the audacious step of buying a building in San Franciscos Mission District. This book tells the story of how they got to that point and the next twenty years of growing into their new home. Included within the book is a full length play written by Mercilee M. Jenkins, She Rises Like a Building to the Sky. The play dramatizes the purchase and the first year in the building. The Womens Building continues to thrive, providing support for countless women and their organizing efforts on behalf of girls and women.
