I received an end of year post from Feminist Current which has some good new stories. I think we all need a bit of cheering up so figured I would share.
I think a lot of us are feeling pretty blue right now. COVID, stressful political transitions, lockdowns, having to wear a mask everywhere we go (and hardly ever leaving the house!)… I could go on.
But if there’s one bright spot in the midst of all this misery, it’s been the remarkable success of feminism worldwide — in particular, radical feminism. Don’t get me wrong: feminism still has its work cut out for it, whether in the ongoing fight for abortion rights in Argentina or the fight against spycam pornography in South Korea. But in these dismal times, some wins for the global women’s movement might cheer you up.
