India: Woman beaten up, paraded half-naked over inter-caste affair Dubai: She screamed and begged for mercy, but nothing stopped the men from brutally thrashing the 19-year-old with sticks, stripping her and parading her half-naked. These men were her own family and she was being punished. What for? The tribal woman's alleged crime was that she had fallen in love and eloped with a man from a different tribe. A disturbing video of this incident that occurred in the Indian state of Madhya Pradesh's Alirajpur district on September 1, has gone viral on Twitter.We may have reached the 21st century, but caste-based violence still exists in India. Twitter users who shared the video are shocked. Indian filmmaker Vinod Kapri shared the video by Indian journalist Makarand Kale on Tuesday and wrote: “OMG. This is horrible: [A] young tribal woman paraded, beaten over inter-caste affair in MP.” The one-minute-42-seconds long video, shot on a mobile phone, shows the girl being flogged with s...

From family to factory: women's lives during the Industrial Revolution

From family to factory: women's lives during the Industrial Revolution The Industrial Revolution saw thousands of women enter the workplace alongside men – but it was far from emancipatory, writes Elinor Evans The Industrial Revolution caused a dramatic shift in women’s roles in society. Before industrialisation, the household would have been the centre of production, and women’s work largely confined to the domestic sphere, but no less physical for it. Tasks such as fetching water, and tending livestock would have kept women as busy as clothing and feeding a family, while many also took other work into their home such as hand-spinning or weaving. Cottage industry, as it was called, didn’t entirely end with the arrival of large- scale manufacturing, but the advent of machinery had an irreversible impact on women’s lives. As machines replaced individual labour and burgeoning industries needed coal, women became part of the growing working classes that laboured in mines and mills. In...

An American soldier in Manila rescuing a wounded Filipino girl Time: February 1945 Sources: MacArthur Archives While the Rape of Nanking in China is slowly making its way into mainstream media and educational systems, the Manila massacre is still struggling to get recognition regardless of the inexplicable inhumanity involved, matching even that of Nanking. The Japanese occupation of the Philippines' capital started after five months of fierce fighting against US forces during the early days of the Pacific War. Manila was declared an "open city" (undefended and exempt from enemy aggression) on December 26, 1941, by American General Douglas MacArthur, who vowed to return one day. His chance finally came on January 9, 1945, when MacArthur's 6th Army came ashore upon the beaches of Lingayen Bay to liberate the Philippines.

Labour and Love: A Herstory of Work and Childcare in the Industrial Revolution

Image
Labour and Love: A Herstory of Work and Childcare in the Industrial Revolution In 1871, Ruth Holdsworth walked through the streets of Leeds on her way to work weaving wool, worsted and flax in a textile mill. Working women were a common sight in northern towns during the industrial revolution, as they travelled to factories, workshops and mines to make money for their families. Some 750,000 working women in this period were also mothers. Both historians and contemporaries have claimed that factory mothers spent the working day away from their infants and children, as the 19th-century industrious period ended any form of control these women had over their working lives. This separation dictated who did what work and where they did it, leading women to be pushed out of the public sphere into domestic spaces. Working-class women’s inability to combine waged work with childcare bit hard when insufficiency of a husband’s earnings forced mothers out to work. If they were to venture out, they...

From 1971: Why Have There Been No Great Women Artists?

Image
From 1971: Why Have There Been No Great Women Artists? A version of this story originally appeared in the January 1971 issue of ARTnews. While the recent upsurge of feminist activity in this country has indeed been a liberating one, its force has been chiefly emotional—personal, psychological and subjective—centered, like the other radical movements to which it is related, on the present and its immediate needs, rather than on historical analysis of the basic intellectual issues which the feminist attack on the status quo automatically raises.1 Like any revolution, however, the feminist one ultimately must come to grips with the intellectual and ideological basis of the various intellectual or scholarly disciplines—history, philosophy, sociology, psychology, etc.—in the same way that it questions the ideologies of present social institutions. If, as John Stuart Mill suggested, we tend to accept whatever is as natural, this is just as true in the realm of academic investig...
