Ms Understood: Women's Liberation in 1970's Britain celebrates the 40th anniversary of the country's first national Women's Liberation Conference at Ruskin College, Oxford. During this event, over five hundred women came together and lay the foundation for the movement's key demands:* Equal pay for equal work
* Equal educational and job opportunities
* Free contraception and abortion on demand
* Free 24 hour nurseries under community control
The exhibition explores the prelude, birth, rallies, media, fashion, politics, disagreements and victories of this crucial phase for improving women's rights. Ends 31 March 2010
