Memory, Meaning, and Resistance

Fran Leeper Buss, a former welfare recipient who became a pioneer in the field of oral history, has for forty years dedicated herself to the goal of collecting the stories of marginal and working-class US women. Memory, Meaning, and Resistance is based on over 100 oral histories gathered from women from a variety of racial, ethnic, and geographical backgrounds.
