Pin, Lü, Will China have its #MeToo movement?, Amnesty International, 2017

Although sexual harassment and its consequences for women and society at large are not acknowledged in Chinese society, in June 2017 anti-harassment ads appeared in subway stations across Beijing, Shanghai, Chengdu and Shenzhen – in campaigns funded either by corporations or by the government-backed All-China Women’s Federation. This report from Amnesty International discusses the development of feminist struggles in China since the arrest of the ‘Feminist Five’ in 2015, with a particular focus on to the development of feminist activism from 2017 onwards.
