Online resources: Summary: One of the most famous political activists of all time, Emma Goldman was also infamous for her radical anarchist views and her "scandalous" personal life. In public, Goldman was a firebrand, confidently agitating for labor reform, anarchism, birth control, and women's independence. But behind closed doors she was more vulnerable, especially when it came to the love of her life. This is more than an account of Goldman's legendary career as a political activist -- it offers an intimate look into her affair with Chicago activist and red-light district gynecologist Ben Reitman. As it charts her twin passions for Reitman and for social reform, it provides new insights into a brilliant, complex woman. The result is both a riveting love story and a primer on an exciting, explosive era in American politics and intellectual life
