About the Author

Ellen Willis

EllenWillis-150x150

Ellen Willis was an American left-wing political essayist, journalist, activist, feminist, and pop music critic.

"I’m a political person, a political radical. I believe that the struggle for freedom, pleasure, transcendence is not just an individual matter. The social system that organizes our lives, and as far as possible channels our desire, is antagonistic to that struggle; to change this requires collective effort. "
