11 June 2015 19:00 ~ Feminist Stories from Women’s Liberation – FiL fundraiser – London

Join us on 11th June at Hackney Picturehouse for an exclusive screening of this remarkable film which won “Best of the Fest” for documentary at the Los Angeles Women’s International Film Festival. It is a film exploring the significance of the second wave of the women’s liberation movement on our lives.

The screening will be followed by a panel discussion, with speakers including:

Alice Wroe, who runs Herstory, a project that uses feminist art to engage young people with women’s history not in the curriculum. @herstory_uk

Dr Polly Russell, who was part of the team running the British Library project, Sisterhood and After: The Women’s Liberation oral history project: http://www.bl.uk/spare-rib

Kelly Foster or the Brixton Women’s History program

The film will also be screened as part of the Feminism in London 2015 conference programme, held on 24-25th October http://www.feminisminlondon.co.uk/ where Jennifer herself will be attending. All proceeds from the evening will contribute to the costs of bringing this incredible feminist filmmaker to the conference, so she can further share these stories that need to be told.
