Sisterhood and After explores and contextualises the oral histories of sixty women involved in the UK women’s liberation movement (WLM) in the 1970s and 1980s. Conducted in the early 2010s as part of a project with the British Library (which Jolly also directed), these interviews elicit memories of the WLM, along with reflections on the movement’s afterlife and the paths that the women have since taken. Throughout the book, individual and collective narratives are woven together, emblematising the liberationists’ charge that the personal is political. Indeed, this is a mantra that Jolly stitches into the seams of the text: she suggests that the dearth of attention to individual activists’ and intellectuals’ lives has led to their ‘[underestimation] as social and philosophical pioneers’ (p. 3) and that, for feminists today, ‘deep listening [to individuals’ stories] … will allow us to redream history from below’ (p. 250).

书评：姐妹会及其后：英国妇女解放运动的口述史，1968年-玛格丽塔·乔利

姐妹会及之后探究和背景化了1970年代和1980年代参与英国妇女解放运动（WLM）的60名妇女的口述历史。这些访谈是在2010年代初期作为大英图书馆项目（乔莉也曾对此进行指导）的一部分进行的，这些访谈引起了人们对WLM的记忆，并反思了运动的来世以及妇女自那以后走的路。在整本书中，个人叙事和集体叙事交织在一起，象征着解放主义者关于人是政治的指控。的确，这是乔利（Jolly）融入文本的口头禅：她认为对个人积极分子和知识分子生活的关注不足导致他们“ [被低估]了作为社会和哲学的先驱”（第3页）对于今天的女权主义者
