Our Unfinished Business: The Fight for Women’s Rights exhibition celebrates the activists who have fought creatively and courageously to make the world a fairer place for everyone. Although our doors may be closed for the time being, we still want to share the most inspiring, often surprising, stories from the exhibition with you, through a new series of videos.
From smashed scales to fireworks, each object in the exhibition has a different story to tell. When planning the exhibition, we worked closely with a whole host of experts and activists to ensure the voices of the women behind each object were represented in a way that honoured their unique histories.
In this new, eight minute video, filmed last year, meet two of those experts: Gabby Edlin, founder of charity Bloody Good Period, and Debbie Challis, the Education and Outreach Officer at LSE Library. Together they will introduce you to three objects featured in the Body section of the exhibition, and discuss why they feel topics such as menstrual equity and reproductive justice remain unfinished business for women living in the UK today.
