In this episode of the Round Room, we examine the evolving landscape of women's rights movements in the 21st century. We explore how transgender women are facing increasing violence and discrimination worldwide spotlighted by international incidents in China, Iran, and Afghanistan. We also explore global feminist responses, including South Korea’s radical 4B movement, mass women’s strikes across Europe and Latin America, and the urgent fight for reproductive rights. Join us as we trace how these movements challenge dominant norms, push back against gender based oppression, and reimagine what it means to be a woman today. We would love to thank our writing team who put together the script for this episode: Styx Hatch, Audrey Collison, Iselin Bratz, Ivan Andarza, Mathew Olaince, and Sadie Scholl . And, of course, we'd love to thank our sound editors Colten Gottlob, and Nik VyshinskiyTo keep up with podcast updates, please follow @theroundroompod on Instagram.Sources:https://theconversation.com/a-woman-is-not-a-baby-making-machine-a-brief-history-of-south-koreas-4b-movement-and-why-its-making-waves-in-america-243355 https://www.npr.org/2024/11/08/nx-s1-5182888/4b-movement-trump-south-korea https://www.hrw.org/topic/womens-rights/reproductive-rightshttps://www.pih.org/article/global-gag-rule-impact https://reproductiverights.org/european-commission-commitment-sexual-reproductive-health-rights-roadmap/https://reproductiverights.org/maps/worlds-abortion-laws/ https://thesecuritydistillery.org/all-articles/south-koreas-4b-movement-how-patriarchy-undermines-demographic-securityhttps://www.theguardian.com/world/2024/nov/15/4b-south-korea-feminist-movement-donald-trump-election-backlashhttps://www.cnn.com/2024/11/09/us/4b-movement-trump-south-korea-wellness-cec/index.htmlhttps://harbingersmagazine.com/articles/from-south-korea-to-the-us-why-the-4b-movement-is-taking-over-by-ashley-solace/https://www.service95.com/4b-movement-explainerhttps://www.iar-gwu.org/blog/iar-web/south-koreas-4bhttps://www.washingtonpost.com/news/worldviews/wp/2017/03/08/one-reason-women-strike-it-gets-results/https://apnews.com/article/iceland-women-strike-equal-pay-970669466116a2b1a5673a8737089d46https://wams.nyhistory.org/growth-and-turmoil/feminism-and-the-backlash/women-strike-for-equality/https://actionnetwork.org/groups/international-womens-strike-us
