Summary: A chronological selection of key civil rights moments and movements in the struggle for women's rights is explained in a child-friendly way. This book examines some of the history of why women have universally been denied the same rights as men. It looks at topics, such as suffrage movements in various countries around the world, how women are denied rights to work and education, violence against women, and women in sport. It explores how women have fought to be able to live their lives freely and that this fight is still ongoing. It also acknowledges the racial inequality in voting rights and how Black, indigenous and women of colour throughout the world have had a further struggle for their civil rights.
