As we approach International Women’s Day it is worth celebrating feminism’s achievements as well as acknowledging how much still needs to be done. The theme for 2017’s campaign is ‘Be Bold for Change’, which necessitates, we would argue, being bold in how we frame and celebrate past and current feminist achievements, in how we continue theoretically to frame our gendered understandings, as well as how we protest and organise against gendered inequality.
