Beschreibung
This book introduces six key influential feminist activists from Japan¿s contemporary feminist movement and examines Japanese women¿s experience of and contribution to the international #MeToo movement. Set against a backdrop of pervasive sexual inequality in Japanese society¿on a scale that makes Japan an outlier in Asia as well as the rest of the advanced democratic world¿this book offers a snapshot of Japan¿s contemporary feminist movement and the issues it faces, including, primarily, sexual violence and harassment of women and girls. The six feminist activists interviewed to create this snapshot all work toward eradicating sexual violence against women and girls¿they are: Kitahara Minori (instigator of the Flower Demo and public commentator), Yamamoto Jun (activist for sex crime law amendments), Nit¿ Yumeno (advocate for sexually exploited girls), Tsunoda Yukiko (feminist lawyer), Mitsui Mariko (former politician and current activist), and Yang-Ching-Ja (comfort women activist).
