San Francisco Women's Liberation

The San Francisco Women's Liberation Movement was part of the broader second-wave feminism in the 1960s and 1970s, focusing on addressing gender inequality and advocating for women's rights. It aimed to challenge traditional gender roles, fight discrimination, and promote equal opportunities in education, work, and personal autonomy. The movement organized protests, consciousness-raising groups, and political activism to bring attention to issues like reproductive rights, unfair labor practices, and societal expectations. San Francisco became a hub for these efforts, fostering a strong community committed to advancing gender equality and societal change.
