Conciousness Raising
"Consciousness raising is a form of political activism, pioneered by feminists in the United States in the late 1960s. It often takes the form of a group of people attempting to focus the attention of a wider group of people on some cause or condition. It is the first half of the adage 'Admitting the problem is half the battle'. "Early feminists argued that women were isolated from each other, and that as a result many problems in women's lives were misunderstood as 'personal,' or as the results of conflicts between the personalities of individual men and women, rather than systematic forms of oppression.
