In this collection of essays, contributors ask how overlooked literature in the 1950s addressed or anticipated the struggles of disenfranchised groups to receive rights and recognition. Scholars analyse the many ways in which the decade's culture stigmatized women, minorities, and the poor, and they uncover work that illustrates how groups and individuals challenged or resisted that oppression.
