In July 1985, Nairobi hosted a meeting of over 14,000 women at the United
Nations’ Third World Conference on Women.2 Domestic and international
women’s rights activists held a concurrent meeting, dubbed Forum 85.
Organised by non-governmental organisations, Forum 85 served as a space for
activists to oppose capitalist exploitation, patriarchal subjugation and racist
oppression, and to build coalitions and develop more nuanced critical views
of patriarchy, capitalism and racism in postcolonial and post-slavery societies.
