Co-authored by her daughter, political scientist Gwendolyn Mink, and historian Judy Tzu-Chun Wu, this work discusses Mink's decades-long work for women's equality, civil rights, environmental humanism, and peace. The book considers Mink's policy and political commitments and contributions and explores how Mink's Pacific World view shaped her politics as a feminist, a civil rights advocate, an environmentalist, and a critic of U.S. militarism. From the late 19th century immigration story of Mink's forbears through Mink's early 21st century advocacy for social justice, this book offers new insights regarding intersectional legislative feminism and Pacific feminism, makes visible one woman's policy activism in the mainstream of U.S. politics, and brings much needed attention to a woman of color who profoundly shaped the politics of race, class, and gender in the second half of the 20th century"--   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status Due Date   Aina Haina Public Library Hawaiian Biography H B Mink Wu Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Ewa Beach P/S Library Hawaiian Biography H B MINK Wu Checked out 05/08/2024 Add Copy to MyList Hana P/S Library Hawaiian Biography H B Mink Wu Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hanapepe Public Library Hawaiian Biography H B Mink Wu Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Hawaiian & Pacific H B Mink Wu Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Hawaiian & Pacific H B Mink Wu Checked out 05/13/2024 Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library R -- Hawaiian & Pacific H B Mink Wu Non Circulating   Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Hawaiian Biography H B Mink Wu Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library R -- Hawaiian Reference H B Mink Wu Non Circulating   Add Copy to MyList Kailua Public Library Hawaiian Biography H B Mink Wu Checked In   Add Copy to MyList More Results: 1 2 3 4 Next
