Diane Horwitz Biography by
Diane Horwitz (1999)
I became
a member of the CWLU in 1970. I began in a rap group called the Midwives
(of the Revolution). I was also involved with a High School/ Community
College outreach group that did organizing and education with young
women. Liberation School classes and consciousness raising groups
were developed at many high schools and colleges throughout the Chicago
region. I was on the planning committee for the national Socialist
Feminist Conference held in Yellow Springs, Ohio in 1975, served on
the CWLU speakers bureau and steering committee. Since that time I
have been teaching at a local community college, where a women's program
for adult returning students that I developed is now celebrating its
25th anniversary!
