Perempuan Ditekan, Perempuan Melawan (Historia, 2018)

Women suppressed, women resisting (Historia, 2018)

Historia feature (2018) on how the New Order subordinated the women's movement after 1965, branding politically minded women 'like Gerwani' and portraying Gerwani as beautiful but cruel, and how independent organising revived from the 1980s. Draws on Suryakusuma and Murniati.
