Sinossi
In the midst of today's highly politicised debates on gender equality, one thing is clear: the fight for women's rights is unfinished business. This book, which accompanies a bold and forward-facing British Library exhibition, presents the history of women's rights in sixteen diverse and timely essays. Among the topics explored are biology, including the first female anatomical skeleton; women's right to sexual pleasure; women's Suffrage; the fight for equal education and employment through the Women's Liberation movement; and how this rich history works today as an engine to power future change. From personal diaries, banners and protest fashion to subversive literature, film, music and art, no topic is too taboo: Unfinished Business presents how women and their allies have fought for equality with passion, imagination, humour and tenacity.

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. Weve celebrated the centenary of the first votes for women. Weve witnessed the decriminalisation of abortion in Northern Ireland. Weve won countless battles to pass legislation and to amplify marginalised voices with an intersectional approach to feminism. We may feel we have arrived. But the fight for womens rights is unfinished business.Unfinished Business begins with the Body. It explores how women are perceived, how they fight for autonomy and seek sexual pleasure, freedom and expression. Historically deemed inferior to men, women have also had to fight for recognition of their intellect. Protests centring on the Mind begin with educational inequalities disproportionately affecting black children and petitions for degree qualifications for women, later recognising the victories of working womens unions and examining womens presence in politics. Finally, we see how the Voice of women is projected in their creative responses to gender disparity, through protest, publication and invention.Containing sixteen voices, each with a different focus, Unfinished Business reveals how the impressive and moving history of womens campaigning works as an engine to power future change, connecting it to the contemporary moment of debate. This bold and celebratory history champions the incredible work of activist organisations today and showcases influential women, speaking for themselves. Confronting diverse topics from bodily autonomy to educational inequalities to creative protest, Unfinished Business amplifies sixteen voices that reveal how the impressive and moving history of womens campaigning works as an engine to power future change. This book champions the incredible work of activist organisations today and showcases influential women, speaking for themselves.
