SUMMARY:Unfinished Business: The Fight for Women's Rights
DESCRIPTION:A fairer world for everyone: the fight for women’s rights is unfinished business.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFrom bodily autonomy and the right to education\, to self-expression and protest\, this new exhibition explores how feminist activism in the UK has its roots in the complex history of women’s rights. With social and racial inequalities thrown into sharp relief by recent world events\, join the debate and add your voice to the many fighting for a fairer world. \nProtest fashion and banners created by organisations such as direct-action group Sisters Uncut\, human rights advocates Southall Black Sisters\, and the Women’s Liberation Movement are among the many diverse items featured in the exhibition. \n\n\n\nEvent Details
