História biográfica

Judy Rebick is a well-known feminist activist, journalist, author, and speaker. Rebick earned her Bachelor of Science in psychology from McGill University, in 1967, and became involved in leftist politics from an early age; she wrote for the McGill Daily during her undergraduate career and served as president of the Ontario NDP Women’s Committee from 1987 to 1988. Rebick became especially involved with feminist issues in the 1980s, acting as spokesperson for the Ontario Coalition for Abortion Clinics while working as the Canadian Hearing Society’s Special Project Director (1980-1992). Rebick was subsequently appointed president of Canada’s largest women’s organization, the National Action Committee on the Status of Women (NAC), where she worked from 1990 to 1993. From 2002-2010 Judy Rebick held the Canadian Auto Workers–Sam Gindin Chair in Social Justice and Democracy at Metropolitan University, (formerly Ryerson University).
During Rebick’s presidency, NAC achieved a high public profile as it helped implement pay equity legislation and increased women’s access to abortion services and rape crisis centres. Key campaigns under Rebick’s presidency included the NAC says No campaign during the referendum on the Charlottetown Accord. Rebick’s presidency also involved extensive media work and lobbying actions on key issues such as abortion law, new reproductive technologies and employment equity.
After her departure from NAC, Rebick launched a career in journalism, hosting the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) television programs Face Off (1994-1998) and Straight from the Hip (1998-2000). She helped found the online leftist magazine, Rabble, and is still politically active as author as well as radio and television political commentator.
Judy Rebick has authored numerous book-length works, including “Ten Thousand Roses: The Making of a Feminist Revolution” (2005), Transforming Power: From the Personal to the Political (2009) and Occupy This! (regarding the Occupy movement, in 2012). In 2018, Rebick published her memoirs: Heroes in my Head, chronicling her experiences with mental illness and her involvement in the pro-choice movement.

Elle a obtenu une licence en psychologie à l'université McGill en 1967 et s'est impliquée dans la politique de gauche dès son plus jeune âge ; elle a écrit pour le McGill Daily pendant ses études et a été présidente du Comité des femmes du NPD de l'Ontario de 1987 à 1988. Rebick s'est particulièrement impliquée dans les questions féministes dans les années 1980, en tant que porte-parole de la Coalition ontarienne pour les cliniques d'avortement, alors qu'elle travaillait comme directrice des projets spéciaux de la Société canadienne de l'ouïe (1980-1992).
