In this fierce and beautiful book, the author of Pornography: Men
Possessing Women confronts our most profound social disgrace:
the sexual, cultural, and political subjugation of women to men,
and with rare eloquence examines the systematic crimes of our
male-dominated society against women.
“Our Blood is long overdue—all women must welcome the vigor
and the incisive perception o f this young feminist. ”
—Flo Kennedy
“Andrea Dworkin’s writing has the power of young genius
—Leah Fritz
“Andrea Dworkin has dedicated the title chapter of her book to the
Grimke sisters, and it would have pleased them, I think—since it
contains material which can serve at once as source and inspiration
for women. ”
—Robin Morgan
“Women, looking into the mirror of Out Blood, will feel anguish
for our past suffering and enslavement—and outrage at our present
condition. Men, if they dare to look into this mirror, will turn away
in shame and horror at what they have done. ”
—Karla Jay
“It is great—scary and innovative and great. ”
—Karen DeCrow
“Our Blood takes a hard, unflinching look at the nature of sexual
politics. Each essay reveals us to ourselves, exposing always the
dynamics which have kept women oppressed throughout the ages.
Our Blood compels us to confront the truth of our lives in the hope
that we will then be able to transform them. ”
—Susan Yankowitz
