Darba fragmentsAizvērt

I'm a student currently studying women's issues. And today I'm going to present you with what I have found out on feminism during the 1960's. The Women's Liberation Movement of the late 1960s was known as the second wave of the feminism movement. It unleashed great interest in the history of women's resistance to male domination. Especially after world war 2 as more women recognised their real value.
Although the women's liberation movement began among us as young women students and professional women, the demands it raised, combined with the growing contradictions within the capitalist system, began to mobilise much broader layers. It began to affect the consciousness, expectations, and actions of significant sections of the working class. Leading more women to recognize their lack of rights and gender-discrimination present in society.
