    About the Course

    "Feminism and Social Justice" is an adaptation of Distinguished Professor Bettina Aptheker's long-running course at UC Santa Cruz. In the
    course, Professor Aptheker presents a broad definition of feminism that serves to frame three significant events in the history of feminism and
    social justice: the Empire Zinc strike of 1951, the 1971-1972 trial of Angela Davis, and the #metoo Movement.

    very interesting to hear a perspective of somebody that actually lived the history. I liked discovering more about events I heard in passing and being challenged to think even more about these topics.

    It was a wonderful introduction on the vast studies on Feminism abd Social Justice. It made desire to learn more and to study how feminism as a movement has operated in my country in the last century.

    Great course and I learned a lot. I wish it were longer than 4 weeks. I liked that the professor was actually teaching a class rather than someone simply talking to a camera.

    The LGBTQ movement has long been closely related to the influence of the Communist Party and the left, and is closely related to social class, race, political beliefs, etc.
