Angry Women by Lynne Harne

Women’s liberation was a grassroots collective movement where women got together locally in women only groups in cities and large towns. Some of these groups were consciousness raising discussion groups, others were direct action groups or a mixture of both. These small groups enabled many women to participate and gain confidence to speak out as well as to organise together. There was no passive sitting back and allowing a few women to speak for us; every woman had a voice.
