Activism, protest and feminism in China | All About Women

On the eve of International Women’s Day in 2015, five activists were arrested in China for handing out stickers about sexual harassment. They were jailed for 37 days. These young feminist activists bring a message of resistance to the traditional role of wife and mother, posing a threat to the Communist Party's vision of family as foundation of political stability. Journalist and scholar Leta Hong Fincher spoke with Fauziah Ibrahim in an electric session on why feminism poses the greatest threat to China’s authoritarian regime today.
