It was a joyous occasion. Our banners reflected our primary focuses: equal pay, equal opportunity, free contraception, and abortion on demand...There were also lots of men of all ages taking part, kids too. And there was a huge police presence we were surrounded by them, walking alongside, in front and behind
I like how it reflects the range of people who were on the march. The placard in the background was in support of US activist Angela Davis, who was a hugely important figure for the women's movement in the early 1970s...I'd been part of the UK movement since its earliest days and had joined one of the first women's groups, in Tufnell Park, London
