Françoise Giroud
Françoise Giroud was a prominent French journalist, novelist, and politician, known for her influential role in the feminist movement in France. As the Secretary of State for Women's Rights, she was a key figure in advocating for women's issues in the 1970s. Giroud's refusal to preface Erin Pizzey's book on domestic violence highlighted the societal denial of such issues in France at the time, and her legacy continues to inspire feminist discourse.
