In 1970 hundreds of women gathered 
for a free conference at Ruskin College that would launch the Second 
Wave of feminism. As men provided the childcare women discussed and 
debated ideas and experiences, and identified what the aims of the 
Women's Liberation Movement as they saw it, should be.

40 years on, Ruskin college organise a conference to commemorate this event, a conference run for and by academics, with no 
child care provided and an entrance fee of £75. 

As an alternative to this, Feminist Fightback invite you to an afternoon 
of film showings and discussions as we think about how far we have come, what feminism looks like today, how the struggle continues, and put the  battles women fight today in the context of the history of the Women's Liberation Movement. 
Films will include:
Journeyman Picture's A 
Woman's Place (1970) 
Excerpts from the BBC's Women series (2010)
And

Alley, 84b Whitechapel High Street, London E1 7QX
