One of the dozens of second wave feminist journals to emerge in the early years of the decade. From the mission statement of Vol. 1, no. 1: "Women everywhere are getting together. Small discussion and action groups are springing up across the country...Up From Under is designed, written, and produced by such a group of women. We are working women, students, and mothers who have been active in radical politics and have come to feel women's issues are crucial" (reprinted in Dawn Keeley and John Pettegrew's Public Women, Public Words, Vol. II, p. 33). Among the contributors present in this collection are Alix Shulman, Tillie Olsen, and Marge Piercy.
