Women’s Liberation Movement
The Women’s Liberation Movement was a social and political movement that emerged in the late 1960s and continued into the 1980s, advocating for women's rights and gender equality. It sought to address issues such as workplace discrimination, reproductive rights, and legal inequalities. Activists aimed to challenge traditional gender roles and promote women's autonomy in various aspects of life.
Key events and organizations, such as the formation of the National Organization for Women (NOW) and the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) campaign, played significant roles in advancing the movement's goals. The movement also intersected with other social justice movements, including the Civil Rights Movement and the fight for LGBTQ+ rights.
