The Women's Liberation Movement emerged in the late 1960s and 1970s, advocating for women's rights and gender equality. It sought to address issues such as workplace discrimination, reproductive rights, and social norms that limited women's roles in society. Activists organized protests, created awareness campaigns, and pushed for legal reforms to improve women's status. Key events, such as the 1963 Equal Pay Act and the 1972 Title IX, were significant milestones in the movement. Influential figures like Betty Friedan and Gloria Steinem played crucial roles in promoting feminist ideas and mobilizing support. The movement has had a lasting impact on society, shaping contemporary discussions about gender equality.
