Rough Draft
"Her attempts to reform abortion laws and raise domestic violence as an issue were the beginning of her infamy" She decided to not run for a second term after her first four years in the Knesset. She served in the Knesset from 1974 to 1977. She came out as a lesbian and was alienated by her daughter. [1]
Freedman wrote an article titled "Feminist Publishing in Israel" for the Women's Studies Newsletter in 1980. She spoke about different bookstores involving feminist books in Hebrew and the 6 publishers that allows feminist works to be published. [2]
"Freedman always admired her father’s path, and dedicated her memoir Exile in the Promised Land(Ithaca, New York: Firebrand Books, 1990) to her father, Philip Prince, “whose example I have largely followed.”)" "Her prominence in and devotion to the movement caught the attention of Shulamit Aloni[1], who asked her to be the third name on her Civil Rights Party[2] (or Ratz) list. To their collective surprise, the Civil Rights Party won three seats in the election, held on the last day of 1973. " "Although feminism was always Freedman’s central political issue, during her term in the Knesset her voice became increasingly prominent on the question of peace with the Palestinians." "Freedman was an early proponent of the Zionist left calling for an independent Palestinian state, engaging in direct negotiations with the Palestinian Liberation Organization, and supporting what came to be called the two-state solution" "She found herself inadvertently elected to the board of Brit Tzedek v’Shalom, a pro-peace and pro-Israel organization at the group’s founding conference in April 2002 and several months later as national president"[3]
