women's liberation

In the days immediately following the riots, gay men, lesbians, and bisexuals organized the Gay Liberation Front to work alongside the Black Panthers, the Puerto Rican Young Lords, Women’s Liberation Movement, and student anti-war movements.

Despite their dark origins of being tested in low-income Puerto Rican women, birth control pills have been credited as being key players in the women’s liberation movement because they helped women take their fertility into their own hands.

Introduced to the public in 1974, the design became synonymous with women’s liberation and launched a young Von Furstenberg’s career.

There are metrics we can use to gauge women's liberation, from the closing of the gender pay gap to increased levels of female education to later marriage and motherhood ages.

The urgency women now feel about regaining their lost freedom echoes the grassroots uprising of the women’s liberation movement in the late 1960s and early 1970s.
