Put a lesson on Inter-sectional Feminism in the British PSHE curriculum.

Closed 77 signatures

What the petition asks

Include a mandatory lesson on the importance of practicing an inter-national feminism in the PSHE curriculum for secondary school pupils.
It is devastating how many teenagers not only do not understand the meaning of feminism, but also how many promote a feminism which exclusively supports the empowerment of white, straight, cis-gender, able-bodied and financially-stable women. Teaching secondary school children about the importance of inter-sectional feminism would help to raise a generation which believes in equality for women of all race, sexuality and class.
