A Brief History of Feminism traces the evolution of one of history's most transformative social and political movements, from its earliest roots in advocating for women's basic rights to its contemporary intersectional approaches addressing multiple forms of oppression. This comprehensive guide explores the movement's development through distinct waves, beginning with pioneering figures like Mary Wollstonecraft and the Seneca Falls Convention, progressing through the suffragettes' fight for voting rights, and examining how leaders like Susan B. Anthony, Sojourner Truth, and Elizabeth Cady Stanton laid the groundwork for future generations. Author KJ Smith skillfully navigates the complex terrain of feminist thought, showing how the movement expanded from seeking legal equality to challenging deeper structures of patriarchy, gender roles, and social expectations.
