Womens Movement

I wish to stress the importance of women's role in the movement. In many of the Third World countries the women students have become involved in the struggle because they realise their oppression is not from the men but from the whole system of imperialism. So they join hand in hand with their male counterparts to fight against the whole system to get rid of the control over them by imperialism. They could only achieve their emancipation in this direction.

I believe women students in developed countries like NZ should also develop a womens movement to fight with their male counterparts for their rights and interests but not try to split themselves and jeopardise the unity of the student movement. This is something we must realise and try to bear in mind.
