520 8  Matilda Rabinowitz's illustrated memoir challenges 
       assumptions about the lives of early twentieth-century 
       women. She describes the ways in which she and her 
       contemporaries rejected the intellectual and social 
       restrictions imposed on women as they sought political and
       economic equality in the first half of the twentieth 
       century. Rabinowitz devoted her labor and commitment to 
       the notion that women should feel entitled to independence,
       equal rights, equal pay, and sexual and personal autonomy.
       Rabinowitz (1887-1963) immigrated to the United States 
       from Ukraine at the age of thirteen. Radicalized by her 
       experience in sweatshops, she became an organizer for the 
       Industrial Workers of the World from 1912 to 1917 before 
       choosing single motherhood in 1918. "Big Bill" Haywood 
       once wrote,?a book could be written about Matilda,? but 
       her memoir was intended as a private story for her 
       grandchildren, Robbin Légère Henderson among them. 
       Henderson?s black-and white-scratchboard drawings 
       illustrate Rabinowitz?s life in the Pale of Settlement, 
       the journey to America, political awakening and work as an
       organizer for the IWW, a turbulent romance, and her 
       struggle to support herself and her child.
