1966 was a pivotal year for American women organizing around equal rights. The National Organization of Women (NOW) was established that year, with the goal of ending gender discrimination against women. With the advent of the birth control pill, the sexual liberation movement was on the horizon allowing life to loosen up a little bit for women. It was a time to celebrate the possibility of a new kind of freedom, thus 1966 emerged as "the year of the go-go", when clubs would be filled with young women exuberantly dancing in a way that reflected the emancipation of their bodies.

On this episode we take a trip around the world to compare and contrast what 1966 sounded like for women internationally.
