![]() ![]() Fifty years later, what do you remember about that day? This action pointed a finger at the invisibility of women in society and marked the creation of the MLF. On 26 August 1970, you led a group of women who laid a wreath at the Arc de Triomphe in homage to the ‘wife of the unknown soldier’, even more unknown than her husband. At 79 years old, the author has lost nothing of her militancy and salutes the young feminists of today, who ‘have a tremendous nerve’ and ‘no longer have any fear or inhibition in relation to men’. In 2011 she co-authored Un troussage de domestique, in which she analysed reactions to the arrest and prosecution of Dominique Strauss-Kahn, and in 2019 L’Exploitation domestique, where she writes that the sharing of household chores does not exist. Fifty years after the foundation of the Mouvement de Libération des Femmes, the sociologist and feminist Christine Delphy looks back at the history of the movement that she co-founded, and the battles she believes are still to be fought.Ī feminist activist and former researcher at the CNRS, Christine Delphy was one of the founding members of the Mouvement de Libération des Femmes (MLF) in 1970 and has been involved in the struggle for gender equality ever since. ![]()
