Regina Luttrell
How did frustration become strategy and hope sustain a movement through more than a century of setbacks and victories? The answer lies in something most people overlook: public relations.
Exploring carefully crafted campaigns and rare historical artifacts, spanning suffrage to modern-day feminism, Regina Luttrell celebrates the calculated risks, brilliant messaging, and media savvy that turned whispers of dissent into roars that could not be ignored.
But this isn't just a history lesson. Rage and Hope examines the dual forces that have always driven the women's movement: rage at injustice and discrimination, and hope for a better future. It's this potent combination that sparked waves of activism and sustained momentum through every defeat, every backlash, every moment when progress seemed impossible—even when those objections were voiced by the women themselves. Refusing to shy away from controversy, the book confronts the internal tensions, intersectional challenges, and critiques that at times threatened to undermine the movement’s endgame.
Rage and Hope offers unprecedented insight into one of history's most transformative campaigns for justice. It shows how women from all backgrounds turned fury into strategy, hope into headlines, and first steps into a revolution that changed the world.

What makes Rage and Hope truly groundbreaking is Dr. Regina Luttrell’s recognition that the women’s movement can and should be understood not as a consequence of history, but as a long-running strategic communications campaign—perhaps the most significant in history. She takes us behind the scenes to uncover bands of women—none trained in what we’d call “public relations” today—performing sophisticated audience analyses, creating strategic messaging, and carrying out often-outrageous tactics that won over the press, politicians, and the public. From Reconstruction to the Fifth Wave of Feminism, these passionate women worked at great personal risk, with scant resources and none of the technologies available today. Luttrell has given us more than a history of a movement; she has revealed an extraordinary lesson of how the right words and strategy can forever transform the hearts and minds of a nation.
In a world where history is being actively erased, we need stories like this more than ever! Matilda Joslyn Gage knew that she was fighting not just for herself or her generation, but also for the generations to come. Here is the story of all the women who came after her and the struggle that they willingly took up to carry on the fight for equality. Rage and Hope is aptly named. May it inspire the next generation to do the same. As Matilda said, “Work On!”
Regina Luttrell weaves a narrative of feminism and public communication through the history of advocacy in the suffrage, abolitionist, civil rights, and LGBTQIA+ movements. All of these used the power of media relations, events, interpersonal and small group communication, and later, social media. Her multicultural and personal storytelling lens is to be applauded.
In today’s political climate, answering the call to fight for equality takes courage and tenacity. Reading Rage and Hope: The Women’s Movement Through Its Most Powerful Campaigns reminded me that my power to make a difference lies in moving beyond comfort and privilege to share my story and uplift others. Many women have fought for equality and brought real change despite the risks, both in history and in my lifetime. Thank you for telling their story so we can find inspiration in their legacy and carry on the work!
Rage and Hope is a meticulously documented journey through historical (and historic) public relations campaigns and a thank-you letter to our courageous older sisters whose strategies and sacrifices gave birth to new generations of possibility and opportunity. It is a vocal validation of the emotions and experiences that societies throughout history have expected women to keep quietly private. Luttrell's work reminds us that struggles and setbacks are not reasons for us to give up, but evidence for why we must keep going.
