Description for False Choices: The Faux Feminism of Hillary Rodham Clinton
Paperback. In False Choices, an all-star lineup of feminists contests the simplistic reading of Hillary Clinton Num Pages: 192 pages. BIC Classification: JFFK; JP. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 142 x 209 x 20. Weight in Grams: 256.
Hillary Rodham Clinton is one of the most powerful women in world politics, and the irrational right-wing hatred of Clinton has fed her progressive appeal, helping turn her into a feminist icon.
