In the 1970s and 1980s feminists organised 'reclaim the night' marches. Groups of women walked down city streets demanding they be made safer for women. This poster advertises a 1979 march in Wellington but they also happened in other cities. They were organised by those working for Rape Crisis and by university feminist groups.
