WOMEN
AGAINST
NUCLEAR ENERGY
This pin combines the Female Symbol with the
Clenched fist over the International Nuclear Warning Symbol
Women against nuclear energy protest badge,
also known as a button. Women Against
Nuclear Energy was formed as an off-shoot of
Campaign Against Nuclear Energy (CANE)
in 1980 in Australia. Members felt like CANE's structures
were sexist and the breaking point was the moment
when the trade union movement had organis
ed an
anti-uranium march on the same day as International
Women's Day.
This made women establish themselves in an
independent structure where they felt their voices could
be heard.
This button/badge was made by Patrick Brothers
in Melbourne, Australia. Their name is debossed
on the metal back of this pin
An Original from the co
llection of
Larry Fox, "The Button Man" (Member A.P.I.C.)
