In The Worldwide Family of Militant Women is a riveting account of these turbulent decades—from the mountains of Peru and the jungles of Vietnam to the revolutionary projects of Cuba, China, the USSR, and back to struggles inside the US.

Eisen demonstrates how she, and thousands of other women, had the opportunity to learn in a time of historic upheaval when revolutionary movements were on the rise in every continent. They joined those struggles both as rank and file and as leaders, in their own organizations and in national organizations; for their own survival and liberation as well as for the liberation of their nations.

As the US once again wages genocidal war against poorer nations, Eisen’s hard‑won lessons resonate loudly. Her story is a call to action for a new generation, outraged by imperial impunity and searching for a path of meaningful resistance. For anyone compelled to challenge the same intolerable war machine, this book offers indispensable wisdom, profound hope, and the proof that we do not fight alone.
