Human Rights Magazine

The 4B movement and radical feminism

Lily Wang Season 5 Episode 13

Domestic violence and an unequal distribution of labor in South Korea were motivating factors behind the rise of what is known as the 4B feminist movement.  In this episode of Human Rights Magazine, Lily Wang explores the expansion of 4B beyond Korea, and the extent to which it may or may not have an impact on the protection of women’s rights.
