Feminisms Fight delves into and evaluates the diverse strategies employed by feminists over the past fifty years to promote gender justice for women in Canada through federal policy. Spanning from the 1970 Report of the Royal Commission on the Status of Women to the present day, the book explores the shifting government orientations and their profound impact on the lives of women. The authors shed light on the challenges faced by feminists in navigating these changing landscapes and the urgent need for a new and comprehensive equality agenda for Canada.
The COVID-19 pandemic has brought to the forefront the issue of misogyny and its systemic inequalities. However, it has also sparked a renewed feminist mobilization and amplified calls for a transformative equality agenda. Feminisms Fight serves as a powerful testament to the evolution of feminism and its treatment by governments. It raises important questions about how new forms of organizing and alliances can propel a feminist agenda that aims to achieve social and economic equality for all women.
Through its comprehensive analysis, Feminisms Fight provides valuable insights into the ongoing struggle for gender equality in Canada. It highlights the successes and setbacks of feminist movements and advocates for a more inclusive and equitable society. The book encourages readers to engage in critical thinking and reflection on the past, present, and future of feminism in Canada, and to contribute to the ongoing fight for gender justice.
