The History of Feminism group serves as a safe haven to discuss, and learn the history of feminism. Apply the lessons of historical and modern day feminist struggles to current issues and events that impact women. This group will also serve as safe haven for women (and supporters of feminism) to openly and honestly discuss and learn how the patriarchy affects women individually and collectively.

Makes me wonder how many historical women we will never know about because there were no written record of them. Thanks to a book review, I learned of and read about these women and I am hoping this site will help to connect me with more information about other historical women.
