Feminism Today talk…

I’ve been helping to organise a talk on the state of feminism today at Housmans Bookshop near King’s Cross. All welcome and even better it’s free!

What’s happening with feminism today?

Wednesday 30th April, 7pm

In the last few months there has been the biggest growth in feminist activism in two decades. To discuss this resurgence, we are bringing together a panel of activists including Jess McCabe from the F-Word, Finn Mackay of Reclaim The Night, Laurie Penny of Red Pepper, women from Wominspace (the new squatted women’s social centre), Jennifer Drew, and others.

Have your say

In order to keep this blog as a feminist and friendly space, comments will be subject to some rules. We do not seek to censor debate: the beauty of the internet is that anyone can set up their own blog or website to express their views.

  1. This blog is a safe and friendly space for feminists and feminist allies. Debate and critique are welcome where it is constructive and deepens analysis or understanding. Anti-feminist comments will not be approved. We get to decide what's anti-feminist.
  2. All comments must be approved by one of the bloggers. For this reason, there may be a delay before your comment appears.
  3. No sexist, racist, homophobic, transphobic, classist, ablist comments, comments which make personal attacks on any blogger or commenter, or comments that are otherwise deemed offensive by us will be posted.
  4. Trolls will be banned from commenting. We get to decide who is a troll.
  5. No anonymous comments - please feel free to use your real name or make one up, though.
  6. Be nice.

Please note that your email address will not be displayed on this website. All comments are checked, prior to being published on this site.
