Feminism: A History of Organizing
Captions available
The idea
Feminism names the organized movements that have contested unequal legal, economic, and social standing between the sexes.
In practice
Suffrage-era organizing, Friedan's 1963 critique marking feminism's second wave, and Title IX each followed sustained organizing rather than arriving on their own.
Where people slip
"Feminism" names a family of movements with real internal disagreement, not one unified program.
