Question 3
Introduction
It is no secret that women in Africa have long been looked down upon and have
faced numerous disadvantages. Hetero-patriarchal capitalism is being combated by
mobilizing women (Nyambura, 2018). Women's subjugation was not acknowledged
by leaders. Despite still-visible patriarchal power systems, women have pushed their
way into an almost entirely male area with remarkable speed and persistence
(Geisler 2004: 9). With unwavering roles, women's movements have considerably
contributed to Africa's development. This essay will begin by providing an overview
of women’s movements in Africa, followed by a discussion of the roles, contributions,
limitations, and roles of African women's movements.
Women’s movements in Africa
Women were supposed to assume the role of housewife, always in the kitchen,
cleaning around the house, and obeying their husbands' directions while the men
went out to work and were free to do as they wanted. A woman's job was to take
care of the food and the children (Seekings 1991:78–79, 82). Men preferred that
their wives stay at home, but exceptions were granted so that they might go to
church. Women in Africa had been held behind for far too long and were fed up; they
wanted better treatment, so they banded together and took charge of constructing
and rebuilding their identities. They were the pioneers of African women's
movements. All of these movements involved activities and collective acts aimed at
bringing about change for women in society. For decades, women and girls have
been subjected to a great deal. These movements were the result of a huge amount
of effort put in by these ladies. Women joined movements with the hopes of gaining
independence within their countries and, eventually, the world. "The Women's
Movements across Africa have grown permanent and multi-faceted," writes Nakayi,
Kwagala & Twesiime-Kirya (2005), "with one of its key objectives being overcoming
the issues brought about by political, social, and economic transformation across the
continent." These movements include those that promote the battle against gender-
based violence, such as the 1000 Women organization in South Africa, and those
that emphasize women's fundamental rights.
