People of Barcelona

In the 70s and 80s Barcelona underwent an explosion of freedom as feminists took to the streets and public places in the city to make their voices heard. This presence of women in the street gave rise to places where women could meet and debate. This is the story of a struggle that began in the post-Franco era and that continues today. Fully illustrated with photographs and documents of interest, this book is key to understanding the origins of many of the feminist movement’s vindications, which women continue to fight for today.

What are them saying

"Segura comença la seva Barcelona feminista amb les Jornades Catalanes de la Dona celebrades a Barcelona el maig del 1976 i les comença llegint-les no només com a esdeveniment succeït, sinó també com a símptoma polític, ja que les Jornades representen un dels inicis de la irrupció de la dona a l’espai públic."

"‘Barcelona Feminista 1975-1988’, un libro que recoge fotografías y documentos de unos años clave para las mujeres."

"Barcelona feminista 1975-1988 de la historiadora Isabel Segura traza una crónica alternativa, desde el punto de vista de la mujer, sobre los primeros tiempos de democracia."

VANESSA GRAELL 08/03/2019

"Isabel Segura recupera les lluites feministes que als 70 i 80 volien acabar amb la societat patriarcal."
