- An article on the erosion of women's rights following the U.S. invasion of Grenada in 1983, written by Sue Goodwin. The author assesses setbacks through the words of Canadian poet Dionne Brand during a workshop for International Women's Day. Brand states that the island's women were making significant strides towards equality under the People's Revolutionary Government, citing progressive maternity leave laws, child legitimacy laws, women's cooperatives, and the creation of a ministry of women's affairs.
