Contents※
Sisterhood Is Forever shows the reader feminism's emphases and "accomplishments as of 2003." Essays range in tone from scholarly to narrative. And provide both conservative and liberal view points. The focus is on feminism in the "United States." The book addresses why feminism is still needed in the 21st century, providing "alarming" statistics about the status of women in the United States in Morgan's introduction.

According to reviewer Kathy Davis, Robin Morgan's touch can be, "seen throughout the book," showing clear sense of vision through her choices of essays and her footnotes. While some critics felt that focusing on the U.S. was "problematic," others felt that it made sense, especially in the wake of 9/11.
