Half the Sky – Claudie Broyelle

Half the Sky is an insightful investigation into the situation of women in China during the 70s, offering a concrete contrast between proletarian feminist struggles in socialism and bourgeois feminist struggles in the West. Still relevant today, this juxtaposition helps shed light on the limits (some self-imposed) of women’s struggles in imperialist countries, through the vivid, creative demonstrations of what can be possible in a different society.
