Through this course I see that the feminism movement links tightly to the social justice. Racial background also plays a big role. So thank you for a great course!

Lecture's pacing and storytelling can improve because sometimes it gets monotonous.

Also, would be great to keep the course updated as this was filmed in 2018.

I already had some deep knowledge about feminism which was propagated by Periyar back in Tamil Nadu, India. This course shows more concepts similar to that.

Good a lesson to learn What is a Feminists movement, but sometimes bored because the teaching method only has a listen to a person and lecture.
