Abstract:

Participatory Democracy," the Bridge from Civil Rights to Women's Rights.
This paper explores the connection between the democratic tactics, namely participatory democracy, employed during the Civil Rights Movement and the tactics employed during the Women's Rights Movement. Using Civil Rights leaders’ images and definitions of "participatory democracy," I attempt to link the successful Civil Rights Movement to the later Women's Rights Movement, as an important precedent which permitted the effectiveness of the Women's Movement. My research is derived from narrative histories of the Civil Rights Movement and the Women's Movement as well as political texts defining the concept of "participatory democracy" with written evidence of its presence in other notable social movements, including others in Europe and Asia. |

Like the Civil Rights Movement women promote equality among each other by discouraging one-spokesman leadership.
