Object Details

Bella Abzug ran for Congress on a proudly feminist and antiwar platform. This handbill touted both her deep New York roots as a daughter of the city and her global thinking as a founder of Women Strike for Peace. She defeated the incumbent Representative and went on to create a new activist model for future congresswomen.
