But since she has been praising domesticity all along, in both essay and verse, her publisher prodded her into assembling her thoughts as rebuttal to all those, like Betty Friedan, who deprecate the very role that Housewife McGinley prefers to fill.

Before him, in the auditorium of the Kwame Nkrumah Ideological Institute at Winneba, a fishing village west of Accra, the Fourth Afro-Asian Peoples Solidarity Conference sat assembled in sober splendor. But not in unity. Despite Nkrumah's keynote speech calling for brotherhood among all "anti-imperialist, anticolonialist, anti-neocolonialist and anti-racialist" movements, Conference Chairman Welbeck admitted sadly: "Some of the delegates are quarreling among themselves...
