Feminism for the Many
The World Transformed

Add to calendar


In the year that marks the hundredth anniversary of some women winning the vote, #MeToo has shone a light on the structural discrimination and endemic violence that women continue to suffer. It’s increasingly clear that women’s liberation requires a fundamental reordering of society. Join feminists from the UK, Ireland, Chile and the United States to explore how we can develop a feminism that not only challenges sexism, but also forms of oppression and exploitation based on class, race and nation. No socialism without feminism, no feminism without socialism!
